Low unemployment, a boom in housing starts, and confident consumers are propelling robust sales for Tampa Bay furniture stores.

In 2019, local consumers in the Tampa area spent $1.3 billion on furniture and home furnishing. This number is expected to grow.

Based on estimates developed by Furniture Today’s Strategic Insights team and Easy Analytic Software Inc. (EASI), the total furniture and bedding market is projected to expand by more than 22% by 2024.

If a Tampa Bay small business owner who sells furniture, furnishings, or home decor would like to grab a larger share of this expanding market, then advertising is necessary.  By almost every key metric, advertising on local radio is a sound marketing investment.
