Investors of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have shown keen interest in forging joint ventures (JVs) with the Pakistan Furniture Council (PFC) to tap the global market by meeting international standards.

Ashfaq said the proposed JVs were aimed at enhancing Pakistan's furniture manufacturing capabilities by incorporating advanced technology, improving design innovation and increasing production efficiency.
