IKEA to open first New Zealand store on December 4th
In just three months, IKEA will officially say 'Kia ora' to New Zealanders, and to mark the "save the date" announcement, the furniture retailer has installed its iconic wordmark on the side of the Sylvia Park store in Auckland .
says Tolga Öncu, Ingka Retail Manager (COO) at IKEA Retail (Ingka Group).
Alongside the 34,000 m² store, IKEA will, for the first time when entering a new market, launch 29 convenient Pick-Up Points nationwide with home delivery. Over 7,500 items from the IKEA range are available to people throughout New Zealand .
When it opens, New Zealand will become the first new market for the largest IKEA retailer since 2021, when a store was opened in
Ljubljana , capital of
Slovenia .
The expansion into New Zealand is part of a broader investment strategy aimed at making IKEA even more accessible worldwide. In total, more than EUR 5 billion will be invested by FY27 in opening new locations and optimizing the existing ones across many markets.
