Analysis of international competitiveness in the furniture sector: The case of G20 countries

Öz

Background and Aims This study aims to determine the international competitiveness performance of G20 countries in the furniture sector and to comparatively analyze the structural differences among these economies. Methods In order to compare the sectoral competitiveness of G20 countries, Balassa’s Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) Index—widely accepted in the literature—was used. Based on global trade data classified according to the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC Rev.3), the level of specialization of countries in sectoral competition was identified. Results The analysis revealed that, in addition to China—which possesses a moderate level of international competitiveness (2.42)—Italy, Türkiye, Mexico, and Indonesia also demonstrate a significant comparative advantage in the furniture sector. Conversely, it was observed that developed economies such as the United States, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and Japan do not hold international competitiveness in this sector. Conclusion The findings indicate that developed countries invest in high technology intensive industries while meeting their demand for labor and capital intensive products through imports from developing economies. For developing countries—particularly Türkiye—strategic branding, transitioning to automation based production, and expanding market share would be beneficial in establishing competitive superiority.
