The Singapore Furniture Industries Council (SFIC) is established since 1981 as the official representative body of Singapore’s furniture and furnishings industry. It has a membership of over 360 companies, spanning across five key industry clusters: furniture manufacturers, interior fit-out specialists, retailers, designers, as well as materials/ components/services providers. Collectively, our industry players have a global footprint in over 80 countries to date. Currently, the council represents 95% of established furniture manufacturers in Singapore, of whom 65% have subsidiary manufacturing plants in various countries across the region, including China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam. As an aggregator and multiplier in the furniture eco-system, the SFIC’s vision is to position the Singapore furniture industry as the nexus of tomorrow’s work-life integration for sustainable urban living. In essence, the industry aims to pursue the three key pillars of market agility, urbanite-centricity and enterprise adeptness to drive the industry further. SFIC’s priority initiatives include internationalisation, design development, business innovation, digitalisation and sustainability to enable members to stay future ready and competitive, while upgrading enterprise and human capital capabilities within the industry. The SFIC also helms as the Chairman of the ASEAN Furniture Industries Council (AFIC), with the aim of further strengthening intra-ASEAN trade and its competitive advantage in the global market. 新加坡家具工业理事会 SFIC 成立于 1981 年，是新加坡家具和陈设行业的官方代表机构，拥有超过 360 家的公司成员，横跨五大主要产业集群，包括家具制造商、室内装修商、零售商、设计公司以及材料组件与服务供应商，商业足迹遍布全球 80 多个国家。 SFIC 代表了新加坡 95%的老牌家具制造商，其中 65%在亚太地区多个国家设有子公司，包括中国、印度尼西亚、马来西亚、缅甸、泰国和越南等。 作为家具生态系统的聚合器和推进器，SFIC 的愿景是将新加坡家具业定位成未来可持续发展城市中工作与生活的整合纽带。 SFIC 的三大宗旨，即从市场灵活性、城市中心性和企业熟练性，进一步推动行业发展。 SFIC的优先计划包括国际化、设计开发、业务创新、数字化和可持续性，使成员能够为未来做好充分准备，并具备极强的竞争力，同时提升业内的企业和人力资本能力。 SFIC 还是东盟家具工业理事会(AFIC)的掌舵机构，旨在进一步加强东盟内部贸易，以及确保和扩大东盟家具工业理事会在全球市场上的竞争优势和地位。 Visit www.singaporefurniture.com for more information.
