ABOUT MIFF
Southeast Asia’s Largest
Furniture Trade Show
With three decades of excellence, Malaysian International Furniture Fair (MIFF) is the region’s leading furniture sourcing platform, held annually every March in Kuala Lumpur across two premier venues – Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC) and World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur (WTCKL).
The show connects trusted manufacturers from Malaysia, across ASEAN, and around the world with global buyers in a vibrant, business-focused environment. Recognised for its organisation, hospitality, and international standards, MIFF is a UFI-approved event organised by Informa Markets, part of Informa PLC, the world’s largest B2B events organiser.
Backed by strong support from the Malaysian government and industry associations, MIFF continues to champion Malaysia’s position as a global furniture hub.
Strategic Partner: Muar Furniture Association
The Muar Furniture Association (MFA), MIFF’s strategic partner, represent manufacturers from Muar, the Furniture City of Malaysia. Its members showcase their collections exclusively in the Muar Hall at Level 1, MITEC, highlighting Malaysia’s craftsmanship and design excellence. Together, MIFF and MFA continue to strengthen Malaysia’s global furniture presence.
