Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to address the accompanying lean manufacturing implementation barrier in terms of the sizes and ages of the companies. The 148 wood and furniture companies in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor were selected for the pilot research determinations. Smaller companies account for slightly more than 80% of newly founded and expanding wood and furniture industries, with 60% implementing lean practices. The practical implications indicate that the Malaysian furniture sector will have a promising future, with the number of medium-sized plants anticipated to increase in the upcoming years due to the increase in new and emerging businesses.
