Wooden furniture industries make a substantial contribution to development in tropical countries, producing important economic benefits and playing a significant role in promoting economic growth. As wood-processing industries such as the wooden furniture sector develop, they create employment (which in turn expands the tax base in the country), generate a trained workforce, and contribute to the development of physical and institutional infrastructure. These industries also contribute to foreign exchange earnings and stimulate investment in a range of secondary support industries.
