Philadelphia Furniture Retailers Expect A Post-Pandemic Rebound

Jul 9, 2020 4:34:06 PM / by Larry Julius

Before the onset of COVID-19, more than 747,000 Delaware Valley households were planning to spend $1.3 billion on furniture, according to Nielsen. Unfortunately, many of those plans were put on pause as consumers sheltered in place to help slow the spread of the virus.

According to the study, 32% of consumers who had been planning to buy furniture will do so within three months of the pandemic easing. Fifty percent will do so within six months. The numbers for mattress shoppers are even stronger.
