Malaysian International Furniture Fair

The Malaysia International Furniture Fair was interrupted last week when torrential rain eventually flooded the streets of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Despite the construction of a "Smart Tunnel" draining system, these flash floods have become a regular occurrence for the city.

The Malaysian International Furniture Fair, held March 3rd through March 7th, is the first in a string of major overseas buying events designed to get retailers ready for the summer remodeling season. Spread over 2 giant campuses, the Putra World Trade Centre and the MATRADE Exhibition and Convention Centre, the Malaysian International Furniture Fair will bring in buyers from over 130 nations. This unique buying and networking opportunity makes it one of the largest international furniture shows.
