Upcoming Trade Shows in UK for Home & Lifestyle

The UK home décor and lifestyle industry has never been in a better position. Projected revenue is expected to reach $1,010 million in 2024. This market is forecasted to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.26% from 2024 to 2029, growing to $1,722 million by 2029. By this time, the number of users in the home and lifestyle industry is anticipated to reach $15.2 million, with user penetration increasing from 21.3% in 2024 to 23.5% by 2029. Several factors contribute to this growth, including globalization, easy Internet access, and a rising number of users shopping through online channels. E-commerce is becoming an increasingly important distribution channel for home décor, with popular online stores like John Lewis, Wayfair Co., Argos, Amazon, and Next leading the market. Wayfair, in particular, is making significant strides in capturing market share within the UK home décor sector by investing in logistics infrastructure, expanding its product categories, and enhancing its online customer reach. Despite the rise of e-commerce, offline channels continue to dominate the market. The UK home decor market features several major international players, though the landscape is also characterized by the presence of mid-size to smaller companies that are expanding their market presence through technological advancements and product innovation. Notable companies include Ikea, Bed Bath & Beyond, Wayfair Stores Ltd, DFS Furniture PLC, and Dunelm Group PLC. Dunelm, for instance, is renowned for its dining tables, particularly its pine and folding tables, which are highly regarded in the market. Burgess Furniture Limited, headquartered in Feltham, has been a significant player in the hospitality sector for over 60 years, supplying a wide range of furniture, including tables, chairs, and accessories.
