Shaniqua Bamboo at IFEX 2024

We are excited to share our experience as Shaniqua Bamboo at IFEX 2024. This annual event in Indonesia provided us with a wonderful opportunity to participate in the International Furniture Exhibition 2024, held in February at Jiexpo Kemayoran, Jakarta. Our booth was located in Hall B3C3 and was hosted by our CEO, Siti Sundari Kusumawardhani, and our COO, Syahdani Pulungan and Team.

With just two weeks of preparation, we created new bamboo furniture designs and a simple booth, which was built together with our carpentry team. The booth was directly designed by our Chief Design Officer, Namora Pulungan.

During the event, we met many new buyers—around 40 potential buyers from 20 different countries. We were thrilled to welcome all our guests, including reconnecting with long-time buyers we hadn’t seen in a while.

These meetings led to productive discussions that resulted in orders. After three weeks of discussions to finalize designs, knockdown systems, packing, and other details, we successfully shipped a 40-foot high cube container to France in May.

At IFEX, we didn’t just meet buyers and potential clients. We also exchanged knowledge and ideas with fellow furniture enthusiasts, especially those focused on bamboo. It was an honor for us to be visited by Orin Hardy, the Director of Bamboo U Bali and Bamboo Pure Bali, who also participated in the event. The following day, we visited his booth as well. The meeting was short but meaningful for both of us. We both believe that Shaniqua Bamboo and Bamboo U Bali can advance the use of bamboo as a material in Indonesia in our own ways.
