It is difficult to determine the market size for a specific product in a specific country. How to value the import, export and produced chairs in a certain period is one of the questions one has to ask before trying to calculate the size of a market. It’s even more difficult to compare the market size of different countries, simply because the calculations could be based on different methods.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every now and then, OfficeRepublic recieves and email with questions about market sizes, turnovers of specific companies and other information. Until now we could not answer those questions. This month, the FEMB published a report based on Eurostat-statistics with information about several product groups. We analysed the information and were able to calculate the market size for several product groups for 27 countries in the European Union.<\/p>\n

This post is the first in a series of publications about market sizes in Europe concerning office furniture.<\/p>\n

THe Eurostat information<\/h4>\n

FEMB collects data from \u00a0European statistics agency\u00a0\u00a0Eurostat<\/a><\/p>\n

Their report contains three product groups:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Swivel Chairs<\/li>\n
  2. Wooden office furniture<\/li>\n
  3. Metal office furniture<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    For each group following data is published, per country<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Exportvalue<\/li>\n
    2. Importvalue<\/li>\n
    3. Production quantity<\/li>\n
    4. Production Value<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Based on those information, the market size of a specific country can be determined.<\/p>\n

      The Netherlands has a market size for swivel chairs of \u20ac 64,8 mln:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Production value NL (21,7 mln) +<\/strong> Import value (76,5 mln) –<\/strong>\u00a0Export Value (33,4 mln) =<\/strong> Market size (64,8 mln)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Using this method for all contries in the femb-report results in following map<\/p>\n
