According to the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association (BIFMA) office furniture sales grew by 5.5 percent through 2007 even though the national economy experienced some slow down during the same time period.

Office furniture shipments in North America grew to a total of just under 11.5 billion dollars. Although this was a significant increase over 2006 it was a smaller increase than was seen in the two preceding years.

Tom Reardon, Executive Director of BIFMA, stated that growth in the industry is not expected to increase significantly in 2008.
