SUMMARY:Iran Office Expo (HOFEX – HOMEX) 2026
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nIran Office Expo\, operating under the combined identity of HOFEX (Home Furniture Exhibition) and HOMEX (Home Exhibition)\, is an annual international trade exhibition specialising in Iranian home and office furniture export. Organised jointly by Persia FIPCO and ITF Iran Trade Fair Co.\, it is held at Tehran Permanent Fairground on Dr. Chamran Highway in Tehran. The event positions itself as an export-facing platform for Iran’s furniture manufacturing sector\, connecting domestic producers with international buyers across residential\, office\, and interior design product categories. Within the built environment context\, the exhibition is relevant as a sourcing window into Iran’s significant furniture and design manufacturing base\, which remains underexposed in international trade channels. \nFocus\nThe event focuses on home and office furniture across all major product categories: living room\, bedroom\, dining\, and kitchen furniture for residential settings\, alongside office seating\, workstations\, storage systems\, and bank and institutional furniture. The dual HOFEX and HOMEX structure separates the home furnishings and office equipment strands while operating as a single event. Lighting fixtures and home décor products complement the furniture offer. The event’s distinct positioning as an export exhibition means its commercial orientation prioritises international trade over domestic retail\, making it of interest to importers\, interior designers\, and procurement professionals seeking access to Iranian manufacturing capacity for residential and architectural fit-out projects. \nIran has a substantial furniture manufacturing sector with long-standing craft traditions in woodworking\, upholstery\, and decorative finishes. Iran Office Expo functions as the primary annual export gateway for this sector\, offering international buyers direct access to Iranian producers outside the constraints of typical distribution channels. \nProgram\nThe four-day event runs from 30 July to 2 August 2026 at Tehran Permanent Fairground and is structured as an open B2B and trade exhibition floor across both the HOFEX and HOMEX product strands. \nHOFEX – Home Furniture Exhibition Floor\nExhibitors display residential furniture across living\, dining\, bedroom\, and kitchen categories. Products include upholstered seating\, case goods\, modular storage systems\, and decorative furniture items produced by Iranian manufacturers. The floor is configured for direct sourcing engagement\, export negotiations\, and agency and distributorship discussions between Iranian producers and international trade buyers\, interior design studios\, and property developers sourcing at the building fit-out stage. \nHOMEX – Office and Institutional Furniture Floor\nA dedicated section covering office furniture\, banking and institutional seating and workstations\, storage systems\, and related equipment for corporate\, banking\, and public sector environments. This strand targets procurement managers and facility specifiers within commercial architectural and fit-out projects\, particularly those operating across markets with established trade relationships with Iranian suppliers. \nConcurrent Events\nThe event runs simultaneously at Tehran Permanent Fairground with DRINK TECH EXPO and IRAN DRINKTECH\, which cover beverages\, tea\, coffee\, and related food industry sectors. While these concurrent events are outside the built environment scope\, they reflect the broader multi-sector activity at the fairground during the same period. \nAudience\nThe event targets international furniture importers\, interior designers\, fit-out contractors\, property developers\, procurement managers\, hospitality FF&E buyers\, and corporate facility managers\, alongside domestic trade visitors and Iranian manufacturers attending to explore export market opportunities. \nEvent Details\n\n\n\nDates\n30 July – 2 August 2026\n\n\nVenue\nTehran Permanent Fairground\, Dr. Chamran Highway\, Tadjrish\, Tehran\, Iran\n\n\nEvent Type\nInternational Trade Exhibition / Export Fair\n\n\nAccess\nTrade and public visitors\n\n\nFees\nVisitor entry: contact organisers for current pricing.

Iran’s furniture industry carries significant manufacturing depth\, particularly in woodworking and upholstered goods\, yet it operates with limited international visibility due to trade restrictions and market access constraints that affect participation in major global design fairs. This makes the Tehran event one of the few structured access points for international buyers seeking to engage directly with Iranian production capacity. From an architectural specification perspective\, the event’s relevance depends heavily on the trade context of the buyer: for markets with active commercial relationships with Iran\, it offers genuine sourcing value in residential and interior design fit-out categories. The dual HOFEX and HOMEX structure reflects a pragmatic attempt to serve both consumer-facing residential and institutional office markets under one roof\, though the depth of product innovation content is not documented in available event materials\, making it difficult to assess the event’s contribution to design thinking beyond its commercial function. \nClosing Note\nAs Iran’s primary annual international furniture export exhibition\, Iran Office Expo holds a specialised position within the Middle Eastern and regional design events landscape\, functioning as a trade and export platform for a manufacturing sector that remains largely outside mainstream international design and architectural sourcing channels.
