Estonian furniture industry led by exports
Forestry is one of the foundations of the Estonian economy, and our furniture industry is one of the most traditional and competitive industries. Estonian forestry and wood companies do not consider Estonia, with its population of 1.3 million, to be their home market; instead, it is the whole Baltic region with its population of around 100 million – 75% of the production of the Estonian furniture industry is exported. Wood products are in third place in our economy and exports; and furniture is in fifth place.
