ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – Vietnam remains the No. 1 mattress importer in August, with a 31% share of that market, but Indonesia and Cambodia are growing rapidly, an analyst says.
Raymond James, based here, which tracks mattress imports monthly, said that Indonesia had mattress imports of about 125,000 in August, which made Indonesia the No. 2 mattress importer that month, behind the 181,506 mattress imports from Vietnam.
Mexico, which lost four points of market share in August, falling to a 16% share, was the No. 3 mattress importer that month, while fast-growing Cambodia, with about 80,000 mattress imports in August, was the No. 4 mattress importer that month, Raymond James said. Mexico had mattress imports of 95,790 in August.
China, long the largest mattress importer to the U.S., has seen its share slashed in recent months, and commanded just a 1% share of the mattress import market in August, according to the Raymond James analysis of the monthly import figures released by the U.S. International Trade Commission.
