Sharjah: The 5th Hive Furniture Show 2025, the ultimate destination for cutting-edge furniture, is set to throw its doors wide open in Sharjah. Offering insights into the region's rising demand and latest trends in home and office furniture, the 5th Hive Furniture Show 2025 will get underway at Expo Centre Sharjah from 15th to 17th May.
According to Emirates News Agency, the event is organized by OMG Exhibitions and Conferences and hosted by Expo Centre Sharjah. The show will feature global exhibitors from over 10 countries, welcoming trade buyers from more than 50 countries across the Middle East and Africa. OMG Exhibitions formally unveiled the event details during a press conference at the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry's (SCCI) headquarters.
The session was attended by Jamal Saeed Bouzanjal, Director of Corporate Communication at SCCI; Aisha Saleh, Official Spokesperson of the Sharjah Chamber; Gautam Mulani, Co-Founder of the Hive Furniture Show, and Manish Bhatia, the exhibition's Executive Director. In his remarks, Jamal Saeed Bouzanjal highlighted that the Hive Furniture Show offers a notable enrichment to the economic and commercial event calendar of Expo Centre Sharjah.
He noted that the exhibition reflects the Sharjah Chamber's commitment to supporting vital sectors, particularly the furniture and furnishings sector, which is witnessing growth across the UAE. This expansion is largely driven by the increasing number of construction and real estate development projects in the country, which in turn contribute to the rising demand for furniture products.
According to the latest research, the UAE and the rest of the region's furniture market is expanding due to rising demand for sustainable, smart, and multifunctional furniture favored by millennials, with e-commerce, real estate growth, and tourism boosting sales of luxury, customized, ergonomic, and minimalist designs.
Manish Bhatia, organizer of the show, stated, "The regional furniture market is growing fast. Home furniture requirements include eco-friendly materials, minimalist styles, and tech-integrated pieces like smart beds and desks for urban and remote work needs. Office furniture leans towards ergonomic, modular solutions for hybrid workspaces. E-commerce and personalized luxury furniture thrive, driven by affluent consumers, blending comfort, innovation, and sustainability, all of which will be in focus at the Hive Furniture Show."
The show will also feature the Hive Conclave, bringing together industry experts for insightful sessions on furniture, interior design, and home innovations. Attendees will gain insights into the latest design trends, cutting-edge technologies, and innovative ideas shaping the future of the industry.
Gautam Mulani, organizer of the event, expressed pride in unveiling HTL's record-breaking stand, the largest ever in the Middle East, and welcomed returning exhibitors, a testament to past shows' success. The business matchmaking and VIP meetups will also be enhanced to provide unmatched exposure and sourcing opportunities from top manufacturing hubs worldwide.
