year of successful co-operation between d-Bodhi and the IFFS. Over the
years, d-Bodhi has achieved international recognition and built an established
network across the globe, as well as culminated in our best response yet in
this edition. We have witnessed once more the dedication, professionalism
and passion of the IFFS team, which we believe mirrors the drive and spirit of
the d-Bodhi family.”
Mr Vincent
Destailleur whose company Habitat (France) was participating
at IFFS for the first time
agreed synonymously, “We wanted to expand our
distribution in Asia, and IFFS proved to be the perfect platform. With the
signature of a Master-Franchise contract for Asia Pacific with a well-known
Singapore major furniture player, our first regional flagship store in
Singapore will be open this November. We will definitely be back for
IFFS/AFS 2015!”
Visitors
to IFFS/AFS 2014, The Décor Show 2014 and

also treated to an equally appealing show, as
exhibitors have demonstrated the extra effort to create unique and outstanding booths
to engage and entice them. A strong turnout from the ASEAN and Asia, as well as
the strong influx of globally renowned brands coupled with
the enthusiastic participation and support from the various country
pavilions, also resulted in visitors enjoying a rich mix of visual
displays at the Singapore EXPO.

Livart (South Korea), said, “With Asia becoming the next largest market to tap
on, we are seeking designs that are modern and yet, appealing to the Asian
consumer. IFFS /AFS 2014 did not disappoint us at all and we were very impressed
with the variety as well as the quality of designs that we have seen thus far.”
