Dominance of retail stores has created intense competition in the market with major producers such as Inter IKEA Systems B.V., Raymour & Flanigan, and Ashley Home Stores, Ltd. across the globe.

Space availability of different houses is also acting as a key factor driving the segment.
Asia Pacific dominated the folding furniture market with a share of about 40.0% in 2018.
