IKEA India, the Indian arm of the Swedish furniture and home furnishing retailer, is set to open its second store in Bengaluru on November 5 at Purva Zentech on Kanakapura Main Road.
The conglomerate’s second store in the city, targeting potential customers from south Bengaluru and neighbouring areas, comes around four years after it opened its first store in the city, at Nagasandra, in 2022.
Spanning over 80,000 sq. ft. (7,783 sq. m.), the store is located near Konanakunte Cross Namma Metro station.
The store offers more than 5,200 products for customers to explore, with over 3,000 available for immediate takeaway.
The complete IKEA range of over 7,000 products can be ordered in-store or through the IKEA website, app, and Shop by Phone service.
Customers can also take a break from shopping and enjoy Swedish favourites and local treats at the 100-seater IKEA Restaurant.
IKEA began its journey in Bengaluru with e-commerce in 2021.
According to the company, IKEA reaches over 300 million visitors across India through its online and offline channels, and has a community of more than 3 million IKEA Family members.
“Bengaluru holds a special place in our India journey.
Over the last five years, we have been welcomed into thousands of homes and have had the opportunity to learn from customers about how they live, what they value, and how their needs are evolving.
These insights have been instrumental in designing our new south Bengaluru store.
Opening our second store in the city is a proud milestone and reflects our commitment to being more accessible and convenient,” said Patrik Antoni, CEO, IKEA India.
