MIFF agrees to cooperate with association


News this week: The Malaysian International Furniture Fair (MIFF), the leading Malaysian furniture trade show owned by UBM Asia, announced an alliance with the Muar Furniture Association (MFA) that is expected to expand the show’s exhibition space by 25% in 2013.

MFA is one of the most prominent furniture industry groups in Malaysia and its members generate 45% of Malaysia’s furniture exports. As part of the agreement, MFA will participate exclusively in MIFF from 2013 and there will be a special marquee at MIFF for MFA exhibitors.

MIFF 2013 will be held at two venues, Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) and Matrade Exhibition and Convention Centre (MECC). The event will be held from the 5th to 9th March. The 2012 edition of MIFF received a total of 20,000 visitors, including 6,605 overseas buyers from 140 countries and it featured 433 exhibitors.
