IKEA has plans to open its first store in Brazil in 2029, with the initial location set to be in São Paulo. The company has been analyzing the Brazilian market for several years and is preparing for its entry into this emerging economy.
Brazil gas a 75% tariff on imported products, that's why it's hard to enter brazil and make a profit. There are 2 Ikeas in Chile and one in Colombia afaik.
Why is there no IKEA in Brazil? Brazil has very high taxes on imported goods, about 75% or more above the FOB cost . Local companies such as Tok & Stok also face this problem, but have probably already optimized their purchases to reduce the tax impact; Ikea also chooses to buy much of its furniture from very strictly managed local subcontractors.
Fun fact: they used to give out free christmas trees on the condition that you returned them. Because no one can walk through an ikea twice without buying a bunch of shit.
The "scandi horse" she is talking about is just IKEAs modernized version of the traditional "dala horse", they were originally handcarved and painted red, with ornaments, in a region in Sweden called Dalarna, as a children's toy, but it has become a decorative item, and a symbol of the Dalarna region, and Sweden as a whole. If you're interested, you could check out this video: "How Dala Horses Are Handmade In One Of The Last Factories In Sweden | Still Standing"
The thing about IKEA is that when you buy furniture there, they are in boxes and you screw them together yourself when you get home. This makes the furniture much cheaper.
Yes, this is the key idea that made IKEA such a success. The main problem of any other furniture store is that furniture takes up lots of room making it very hard to have much of stock in a store. The compact flat packs makes it on the other hand possible for IKEA to have lots of furniture on hand making it possible to sell much higher quantity and thus possible to have lower prices and still make enough money to get by.
The legend about Ikea is that they are so large in size that Ikea never employ people but it's lost customers that gave up and found a name tag to put on themself :)
The IKEA store has these installations of rooms so you can see the things in a room environment. All things have tags on them with the name of the product and a alfanumerical code. If you plan to buy the product you write down that number (there are paper forms and pencils all over the store for you to use), then in the warehose (that you pass on your way to the cashiers), you find the row and place for your item. And if it's furniture, it's in a flat pack that you have to build yourself. Like a huge lego set. It has the wooden pieces, screws, screw drivers and a booklet with step by step instructions. But for a fee you can order your purchase dilivered to your home and assembled by IKEA staff.
I'm not sure if it's the same elsewhere but at leas there in Finland they did away with the pencil and book approach. Now people scan the code with their phone to add the products to their IKEA app shopping list. The App will tell you where to find the item in storage and how many they have in stock. (And you're able to purchase through the app as well.)
The restaurant is inside IKEA but where ever IKEA decides to build there will always be other stores building next to it since it is so popular. but what they show here is all inside the IKEA store.
Ingvar Kamprad, the founder of IKEA, had the idea that if they have a restaurant in the stores with (cheap) food the customers would stay longer and buy more.
One of the things is that the stores are gigantic and located in major cities which means people sometime drive one hour to go there for shoppng, so it's quite common such trip take an half day, reason why lots a customers enjoys eating something before leaving the shop or meawhile they're waiting their orders are being prepared and ready at the pick-up point.
Hello fro mGermany. IKEA is very big all around Europe. My whole kitchen is from IKEA except for the electrical appliances. And also my bedroom is from IKEA, except for the bed. My bed and my living room are from another German store which has partially adopted the concept from IKEA. I have a large IKEA just a 5 minute drive away and tomorrow my wife and I will be looking there for new desks and cabinets for our office/study. 2:00 This is a Europe thing. We have them in Germany and I have seen them in Switzerland and the Netherlands for myself and I know they exists in a lot of other countries like Sweden in the video. But how it is enforced can be very different in each country. 4:00 It is not a mall. It is just one shop: IKEA. And IKEA has a restaurant in it. Most people take several hours (usually no less than 3 to 4 hours) to go shopping there. 11:08 Correct. IKEA is considered to be cheap, but quite good for the price. Therefore, it is something for all social classes, but mostly for the middle class. 18:30 Same in Germany. The art is international. 19:20 IKEA remains true to its concept in every country, but always adapts its range. Because what works and is popular in one country can be something completely different in another.
IKEA's prices in each country are now considered to be the reference. This means if it's cheap in one country, the price in the next country will be low as well. All prices are adapted for each country. If IKEA opens in Brazil it will not be expensive.
Considering that tee minimum wage in Brazil is about 300 USD per month it will be considered expensive, any goods and imported materials are taxed heavily making most imported goods much more expensive than in their country of origin, a minimum of 60% import tax is typical
17:42 in. Scandinavian design has been know for quite some time now. Especially the Danish design. I would say (arguably) that it started after the 40's... but it has always been "minimalistic" (don't like the word, but it describes it pretty well in many ways) and practical.
A short comment from a Swede to a couple of Brazilians, I live in the middle of Sweden (search Stockholm on a map ( inline with Alaska) then go north about 250 miles) where we have snow for about 6 months of the year, and the growth period of our crops( the nutrients of our people) is about 12 weeks, yep It´s about as fun as it sounds. I envy your rich soil and abundant vegetation but do not support the polititians that have done you so wrong for so many years, Espero que você possa visitar um dia.
IKEA is a store for everyone. You can buy everything for your home, and I mean everything, from cutlery, plates, pots, kitchen, bedroom, living room, decorations, pillows, beds, blankets, toys, children's furniture, fabrics...all for a low price. And the selection is huge. everyone in Europe has some furniture from IKEA.
If you want to know what was in that less than $2 (19 Swedish kronor) salat with ryebread then go look up Toast Skagen, it's named after Skagen in Denmark, but is highly popular in Sweden under the name Skagenröra, in Denmark it go by the name Skagenssalat, that you can buy in several different version in all supermarkets all over the country. You can also get a Danish version of Skagen Salat in Lidl in Germany.
In Denmark we got this thing called "The IKEA TEST", that's when you go to IKEA with your boy/girlfriend for the first time, to see if you got the same taste in furniture, as well as being able to get along during the time there. IKEA is a great place to go people watch, the amount of couples arguing(price/what to get, what not to get 🤣🤣🤣, kids misbehaving(or just being kids), it can be great fun, or pretty exhausting to be honest. Personally i've never really cared for the food there, but plenty people enjoy it. IKEA is for everyone....All the best from Denmark ❤
I have a funny story about affordable furniture. In the late 90s, IKEA started to sell inflatable furniture. It was super-cheap!. I started at university at that time and had my own super-tiny appartment (about 25m^2). All of my furniture was either my old from my childhood, or something I got to borrow from family. A lot of my classmates had though those inflatable couches and chairs. That was a riot! the furniture was seethrough, but you could buy throws in different patterns.
Hey , you can find Ikea, in Chile, Peru and in Colombia, Mexico and I think they have a store in Argentina as well! 😊 The store are more like what you in Latin America call malls, they are so big because they stock in the store. And they are no other stores in ikea that don’t is by IKEA, like the food, the delivery service and so on. Sweden and Scandinavian countries they are famous for the minimalist style not just in fashion but most in interior design. This is the spirit of Ikea.
IKEA is a huge store with everything, usually in two storeys; the restaurant belongs to IKEA and is located inside the store, but it is somewhat separated from the furniture, etc. What is attractive about these restaurants are the very low prices and good quality food, which makes for long queues :)
The wood horse is an old decoration and/or toy the first ones was done in homes that could be sold on a market, it was not necessarily painted or decorated. The most known swedish wood horse is from the region of Dalarna, in Sweden we call those that are from that region Dalahäst (dalahorse) they are often painted in a base colour and then have a decorative pattern painted on, all of the decorative painting is done by hand, if you travel to that part of Sweden you can visit some workshops that makes the horses and some stores you can even try and paint one yourself, I think you pay a fee for being able to do that. The most recognised colour is a red base with white, green, some black and blue as part of the flower motive that is often on these horses.
Ikea has revolutionized the homes in many poor countries with their super cheap furniture that is actually pretty good quality.And it's popular in rich countries too, because rich people also love cheap things. THere is an Ikea warehouse in Santiago de Chile so I guess Ikea will soon be in Brazil too!
And, yes, it is not an expensive store in Europe at all... it is quite a cheap store with a very cheap restaurant (at least for wealthy countries in europe)
Nos grandes armazéns IKEA pode começar o dia com o pequeno-almoço no restaurante (relativamente barato por cerca de 7-10€), depois fazer compras pela casa - já agora, pode comprar uma casa completa com todos os móveis, revestimentos de parede , cozinhas com electrodomésticos, revestimentos de pavimentos incl., compra de artigos decorativos, candeeiros, até plantas, ordenação do transporte de todos os móveis adquiridos para casa - depois das compras, regresso ao restaurante para jantar com pratos típicos suecos - como: B, coma "Köttbullar com molho de natas e cranberries com batatas fritas", ou um belo peixe frito etc.
I have been in Sweden Ikea, four of them and had work practice in one. Then I have been in one Ikea in Finland. Ikea is like a own mall.. Its not for rich people, its for everyone and has really smart ideas and fun design. Ikea houses has playground for kids, you can also leve them whit child carrier and they shout out in hole house, if you need get your kid. But there is also hole floor place for kids whit their stuff, children are alloys to be there and loves it... Restaurant are not expensive, you get good quality at food, drinks, desserts.. Most Ikea has food/ snacks store also and cafe. You go around house , get insperation, they buillt upp like home, for everything, to see how stuff look. You found some products in store or it says were you get it, you get it before paying..Most packing is famous for be flat and you have put stuff togever your self, there is service for it, and help if your products are wrong/ broken and of course you have info also.. All over house you can get free little pen and paper shopper list, to write down products and number were there are... This is easy way describe it.
Thank you for sharing all this information. 🤗🤗 We have never seen a store offering so many things and services as Ikea does, it is a complete store. The craziest thing is that it is a store for everyone. This is really crazy. 🤯😍
Building rooms in the store with the procucts give the customer a better view of how it will look like in their own homes (and a good selling point). Like other companies here selling kitchen/bathroom interiors and kitchen-ware they also have employees for helping the customer to plan their kitchen or bathroom.
This video really didn't show much or any of that. Maybe it differ from warehouse to warehouse though. Anyway, there was this funny incident were a guy moved in and lived in various such rooms for weeks before security noticed him.😹
A large Ikea store (which is shown in this video) is always its own building and the restaurant is a part of it. But, in Sweden at least, there are smaller stores that are in shopping malls as well but they don't have everything a big store has, and they don't have restaurants.
Not only in the nordics, in Austria for example too and of course also parking spaces near the entrance for disabled people and women (for safety reasons, for example in underground car parks)!
The average size of an IKEA store is approximately 25,000 square meters. This figure can vary depending on location and country, as there are both smaller urban stores (e.g. IKEA City) and larger locations. A standard soccer pitch has an area of 7,140 square meters. The sales area of an IKEA store is therefore equivalent to around 3.5 to 4 soccer fields. This comparison illustrates the immense size of a typical IKEA store and the space it requires. A store has a restaurant located about halfway through the store. A store is set up so that you have to go through all the departments one by one, but there are shortcuts. Behind the checkout is a small supermarket with Scandinavian food. There are also snacks such as hot dogs or ice cream as a reward for shopping. The design of the furniture and other items is such that it is perceived internationally as typically Swedish/Scandinavian and within Sweden as typically IKEA.
I love the IKEA experience. But... Last time me and my partner moved, I learned all the shortcuts (including other entrances) in my store. For a couple of years I was super-efficient - in and out in less than ½h.
Ok, 04:35 in. So Ikea as far as I know and have seen in different coutries are only IKEAs, they don't mix with or go into a mall or a commercial center. They are they own store with the restaurant etc... maybe there is "mini" Ikeas in malla or commercials centers in the world, but I have never heard of them or seen them. Normaly Ikea is just Ikea :)
Also, in Sweden, IKEA usually buys the the plot and a big chunk of neighboring plots when they want to build a new IKEA store. Then, they rent the other plots out to other businesses who wants to establish in the same area. Also, there is at least one mini IKEA in the the "Gallerian" shopping mall in the center of Stockholm. Opened just a few years ago.
Thanks for check out ikea i work at ikea västerås in sweden i hope you can abel too see it some day do to englich be my second langwich i not abel too read every thing but love your Chanel ❤❤❤❤
Pretty sure it's a completely separate store/buildning, there are around 20 of them in Sweden, but there are also many smaller IKEAs in shopping malls all around. IKEA is by many considered, let's say, low class, since the products aren't usually of very good quality, they may look good but they will (usually) not last too long, but it's a cheap option for students, or a good option for those who wants to replace everything after say 10 years. The food is kind of decent I guess, not quite fast food, but not really restaurant class.
IKEA has a lot of affordable things that are geared towards young people who are about to start their own household. There's a lot of starting sets. I bought mine kitchen starting set many years ago - it had pots and pans, kitchen knife set, and cutting boards. You could also buy a bigger set that also had plates and glasses and cutlery. And that was like everything for a price of an expensive kitchen knife signed by a chef. And all the stuff is really good. I still have EVERYTHING I bought then. 30 years later. I'm not kidding. (Well not everything. The plastic cutting board set is gone, but I had bought a few wooden ones as well, and 2 of them are still "alive").
IKEA is primarily the store you go to when you bought your first apartment. It's not upscale at all, quite the contrary. It was made to be very affordable. There are some scandals surrounding IKEA, but let's not talk about that.
i like in ikea this rooms with arrangement like in this movie and you can chose what you want buy or you can buy evrything The biggest IKEA in the Poland || IKEA Wrocław || Rahul Solanki Vlogs
IKEA is very affordable here. You can usually find things from super-cheap to rather expensive. Most of variety choices comes from the imagination of the designers, who make their products easily modifiable to be still the same product, but be not recognizable as the same product. So my Billy shelf will look totally different from yours, because of the choices. This is one of the reasons behind the popularity, and the affordability of the company. I remember I heard many years ago, that one of the jobs given to the designers was trying to find design bases (and factory production bases) that already existed somewhere in the world. So that you could use those factories to produce furniture. I don't remember what product it was, but they showed off some product that they made based of how shopping carts are created.
Hi, I am not from Sweden, but from the Netherlands and I've been in several IKEA's in the Netherlands, in Germany and Poland and they have their own buildings, no other business in there, just the IKEA and their cafe/restaurant..
Well, IKEA furniture is very cheap, when compared to other shops here in Finland (next to Sweden, if you didn't know). Well, not 4-star quality products, but the other shops are not any better, in reality. So, a very popular shop.
I might be biased because I'm swedish, but I have to say that IKEA is really great. I know that many swedish men (husbands, really) complain about going to IKEA because the spouse always take forever to choose what bed sheet (or whatever) to buy, but REALLY, if you look at it IKEA is great. Everything is displayed "in theme", living room, bedroom, kitchen and so on. You see everything displayed as in a home so that you can imagine it in your own, write down the code corresponding to each item you wish to buy and pick it up in the warehouse, connected to the storehouse. Beside that you can take a swedish fika or eat lunch or dinner. You will understand when you get there, it is all very swedish, very simple and sensible.
Answer to your question if the mall is just IKEA or if there are different stores there as well. It depends on the place. It's usually both. But some stores that are outside of IKEA proper, are actually part of the IKEA. At least in my town (Västerås in Sweden), we have both a mall with a lot of different stores (including H&M), and things that belong to IKEA, but are outside the main IKEA store - like a café (that serves other food that IKEA restaurant food) that is furnished with IKEA furniture, and that small store just outside the cashiers, where you can buy icecream, hotdogs and some Swedish produce. But the IKEA store is so extremelly large, that it could exist on its own in that place. Going to IKEA is a half-day excursion. You need stamina to traverse it. think the trek is several kilometers long, a and the restaurant is in the middle. There was a time when we were furnishing our latest home, when I knew ALL the shortcuts, so that I didn't have to spend all that time. I love though the part of IKEA where they do the small exhibits. They go from entire apartments to just the rooms.
Bring your house, flatplan in cm. Windows, doors, water - And get free help to make your new bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, livingroom, office etc. Or plan it your self. I even got help at my home. Didnt cost much.
I would disagree. I know very wealthy people who all own and appeciate ikea products even if its mixed with more luxurious and niche products. IKEA is certainly mainstream so anyone who wants a more unique expression would go for other brands. But a home usually has a lot of stuff and very few people wants to spend luxury money on every mundane thing. A rich person could go to svenssons (a luxury home store) and buy one pillow for their guest house sofa for 150$ or they go to ikea and get 5 pillows and a blanket for the same money. At some point it just becomes silly. you dont become rich by spending your money unwisely. So basically there’s always some room for IKEA even though the ratio of IKEA to other brands in a swedish home differs ☺️
In german IKEA's there's an area called Småland where you can bring your kids before you go shopping. Is this also common in Sweden bc I haven't seen one in this vid?
Meus amigos brasileiros adoram a IKEA, tudo o que você precisa para uma casa em um unico lugar There is something like 350 IKEA stores worldwide in 48 countries and the closest thing to IKEA in Brazil is probably Tok&Stok, however even if IKEA is considered budget furniture in many parts of the world they would be expensive in Brazil, and no one that can afford buying expensive furniture in Brazil would consider assembling any themselves There is one IKEA in Santiago de Chile and one in Bogota, Colombia and they had plans before the pandemic to eventually open one in Sao Paulo
I think you guys need to see video about what IKEA is. I'd love to react to it. Also I'm kind of going to spam this channel, because I don't want to say different things in the same post.
If you are in a hurry, IKEA is not for you! Once you get inside you don't be able to get out before you have gone through the whole thing, both first and second floor.
Yes america is a part the 3.rd world. A developing country according to most metrics. But i have high hopes.. eeh. mabye mid hopes. .. eh. I went to US in the late 90.s when it was cool. I have some hopes.

One of the main reasons they avoided a website to order from and still aren't the most natural option to buy online from

The "scandi horse" she is talking about is just IKEAs modernized version of the traditional "dala horse", they were originally handcarved and painted red, with ornaments, in a region in Sweden called Dalarna, as a children's toy, but it has become a decorative item, and a symbol of the Dalarna region, and Sweden as a whole.

The most known swedish wood horse is from the region of Dalarna, in Sweden we call those that are from that region Dalahäst (dalahorse) they are often painted in a base colour and then have a decorative pattern painted on, all of the decorative painting is done by hand, if you travel to that part of Sweden you can visit some workshops that makes the horses and some stores you can even try and paint one yourself, I think you pay a fee for being able to do that. The most recognised colour is a red base with white, green, some black and blue as part of the flower motive that is often on these horses.
Ikea has revolutionized the homes in many poor countries with their super cheap furniture that is actually pretty good quality.And it's popular in rich countries too, because rich people also love cheap things.
THere is an Ikea warehouse in Santiago de Chile so I guess Ikea will soon be in Brazil too!
We will love having IKEA here, the furniture is so beautiful and different 😍😍
And, yes, it is not an expensive store in Europe at all... it is quite a cheap store with a very cheap restaurant (at least for wealthy countries in europe)
Yes, low prices for decent quality is the main selling point of IKEA.
Prices depend on the product quality, they have cheap/affordable/decent products and expensive/high quality products as well.
Nos grandes armazéns IKEA pode começar o dia com o pequeno-almoço no restaurante (relativamente barato por cerca de 7-10€), depois fazer compras pela casa - já agora, pode comprar uma casa completa com todos os móveis, revestimentos de parede , cozinhas com electrodomésticos, revestimentos de pavimentos incl., compra de artigos decorativos, candeeiros, até plantas, ordenação do transporte de todos os móveis adquiridos para casa - depois das compras, regresso ao restaurante para jantar com pratos típicos suecos - como: B, coma "Köttbullar com molho de natas e cranberries com batatas fritas", ou um belo peixe frito etc.
I have been in Sweden Ikea, four of them and had work practice in one.
Then I have been in one Ikea in Finland.
Ikea is like a own mall..
Its not for rich people, its for everyone and has really smart ideas and fun design.
Ikea houses has playground for kids, you can also leve them whit child carrier and they shout out in hole house, if you need get your kid. But there is also hole floor place for kids whit their stuff, children are alloys to be there and loves it...
Restaurant are not expensive, you get good quality at food, drinks, desserts..

All over house you can get free little pen and paper shopper list, to write down products and number were there are...
This is easy way describe it.
Thank you for sharing all this information. 🤗🤗
We have never seen a store offering so many things and services as Ikea does, it is a complete store.
The craziest thing is that it is a store for everyone.
This is really crazy. 🤯😍
Building rooms in the store with the procucts give the customer a better view of how it will look like in their own homes (and a good selling point). Like other companies here selling kitchen/bathroom interiors and kitchen-ware they also have employees for helping the customer to plan their kitchen or bathroom.
This video really didn't show much or any of that. Maybe it differ from warehouse to warehouse though.
Anyway, there was this funny incident were a guy moved in and lived in various such rooms for weeks before security noticed him.😹
We usually do this here too, in Brazilian stores.
But hats off to Ikea, this is on another level, every detail is perfect! They are dedicated.
@AltCutTV This sounds crazy! 😂😂
A large Ikea store (which is shown in this video) is always its own building and the restaurant is a part of it. But, in Sweden at least, there are smaller stores that are in shopping malls as well but they don't have everything a big store has, and they don't have restaurants.
Parking spots for families and disabled are normal thing in the Nordics.
IKEA is a cheap furniture store here :)
Not only in the nordics, in Austria for example too and of course also parking spaces near the entrance for disabled people and women (for safety reasons, for example in underground car parks)!
Skagenröra that they were eating contains prawns and is very delicious. So no tuna.
The average size of an IKEA store is approximately 25,000 square meters. This figure can vary depending on location and country, as there are both smaller urban stores (e.g. IKEA City) and larger locations. A standard soccer pitch has an area of 7,140 square meters. The sales area of an IKEA store is therefore equivalent to around 3.5 to 4 soccer fields. This comparison illustrates the immense size of a typical IKEA store and the space it requires. A store has a restaurant located about halfway through the store. A store is set up so that you have to go through all the departments one by one, but there are shortcuts. Behind the checkout is a small supermarket with Scandinavian food. There are also snacks such as hot dogs or ice cream as a reward for shopping.
The design of the furniture and other items is such that it is perceived internationally as typically Swedish/Scandinavian and within Sweden as typically IKEA.
I love the IKEA experience. But... Last time me and my partner moved, I learned all the shortcuts (including other entrances) in my store. For a couple of years I was super-efficient - in and out in less than ½h.
To answer your question in the beginning.. It's just an IKEA store, nothing else.
IKEA is different in all the countries in which it has stores. They adapt it to the country in which the business is located.
Ok, 04:35 in. So Ikea as far as I know and have seen in different coutries are only IKEAs, they don't mix with or go into a mall or a commercial center.
They are they own store with the restaurant etc... maybe there is "mini" Ikeas in malla or commercials centers in the world, but I have never heard of them or seen them.
Normaly Ikea is just Ikea :)
Also, in Sweden, IKEA usually buys the the plot and a big chunk of neighboring plots when they want to build a new IKEA store. Then, they rent the other plots out to other businesses who wants to establish in the same area.
Also, there is at least one mini IKEA in the the "Gallerian" shopping mall in the center of Stockholm. Opened just a few years ago.
The size of Ikea in Stockholm 32 000 square meters. In the Philippines its 65,000!
Thanks for check out ikea i work at ikea västerås in sweden i hope you can abel too see it some day do to englich be my second langwich i not abel too read every thing but love your Chanel ❤❤❤❤
This is only IKEA.
And i love your channel.
Pretty sure it's a completely separate store/buildning, there are around 20 of them in Sweden, but there are also many smaller IKEAs in shopping malls all around.
IKEA is by many considered, let's say, low class, since the products aren't usually of very good quality, they may look good but they will (usually) not last too long, but it's a cheap option for students, or a good option for those who wants to replace everything after say 10 years.
The food is kind of decent I guess, not quite fast food, but not really restaurant class.
IKEA has a lot of affordable things that are geared towards young people who are about to start their own household. There's a lot of starting sets. I bought mine kitchen starting set many years ago - it had pots and pans, kitchen knife set, and cutting boards. You could also buy a bigger set that also had plates and glasses and cutlery. And that was like everything for a price of an expensive kitchen knife signed by a chef.
And all the stuff is really good. I still have EVERYTHING I bought then. 30 years later. I'm not kidding. (Well not everything. The plastic cutting board set is gone, but I had bought a few wooden ones as well, and 2 of them are still "alive").
IKEA is primarily the store you go to when you bought your first apartment. It's not upscale at all, quite the contrary. It was made to be very affordable.
There are some scandals surrounding IKEA, but let's not talk about that.
Minimalism isn't atrend in the Nordic, it is a part of our culture going way back.
Ikea is a single large company with furniture and restaurant all in one
i like in ikea this rooms with arrangement like in this movie and you can chose what you want buy or you can buy evrything
The biggest IKEA in the Poland || IKEA Wrocław || Rahul Solanki Vlogs
IKEA is very affordable here. You can usually find things from super-cheap to rather expensive.
Most of variety choices comes from the imagination of the designers, who make their products easily modifiable to be still the same product, but be not recognizable as the same product. So my Billy shelf will look totally different from yours, because of the choices. This is one of the reasons behind the popularity, and the affordability of the company. I remember I heard many years ago, that one of the jobs given to the designers was trying to find design bases (and factory production bases) that already existed somewhere in the world. So that you could use those factories to produce furniture. I don't remember what product it was, but they showed off some product that they made based of how shopping carts are created.
Hi, I am not from Sweden, but from the Netherlands and I've been in several IKEA's in the Netherlands, in Germany and Poland and they have their own buildings, no other business in there, just the IKEA and their cafe/restaurant..
Well, IKEA furniture is very cheap, when compared to other shops here in Finland (next to Sweden, if you didn't know). Well, not 4-star quality products, but the other shops are not any better, in reality. So, a very popular shop.
IKEA makes stuff for the many people so they try to do it affordable for all
I might be biased because I'm swedish, but I have to say that IKEA is really great. I know that many swedish men (husbands, really) complain about going to IKEA because the spouse always take forever to choose what bed sheet (or whatever) to buy, but REALLY, if you look at it IKEA is great. Everything is displayed "in theme", living room, bedroom, kitchen and so on. You see everything displayed as in a home so that you can imagine it in your own, write down the code corresponding to each item you wish to buy and pick it up in the warehouse, connected to the storehouse. Beside that you can take a swedish fika or eat lunch or dinner. You will understand when you get there, it is all very swedish, very simple and sensible.
Ikea is mainly a furniture store only. Besides this they sell large number of home equipment too
4:42 it's just IKEA, everything is inside one store
The reason why IKEA exist is that is cheaper.
Omg, Dalahäst = Scandhorse xD Even for Polish guy, it is funny.
Btw, every IKEA in Europe looks like this one in Sweden. It is kinda funny too.
Answer to your question if the mall is just IKEA or if there are different stores there as well. It depends on the place. It's usually both. But some stores that are outside of IKEA proper, are actually part of the IKEA. At least in my town (Västerås in Sweden), we have both a mall with a lot of different stores (including H&M), and things that belong to IKEA, but are outside the main IKEA store - like a café (that serves other food that IKEA restaurant food) that is furnished with IKEA furniture, and that small store just outside the cashiers, where you can buy icecream, hotdogs and some Swedish produce.
But the IKEA store is so extremelly large, that it could exist on its own in that place. Going to IKEA is a half-day excursion. You need stamina to traverse it. think the trek is several kilometers long, a and the restaurant is in the middle. There was a time when we were furnishing our latest home, when I knew ALL the shortcuts, so that I didn't have to spend all that time.
I love though the part of IKEA where they do the small exhibits. They go from entire apartments to just the rooms.
ikea is its own store building and usualy strech over 3-5 floors and have resturant in its store
4:30 No, this is just IKEA. No other stores. The restaurant is owned by IKEA. It is inside the IKEA building and part of it.
1 class ppl FROM a 3:rd world contry should be the channel name! Cheers from Gothenburg
Even Zlatan Ibrahimovic buys furniture at IKEA.
Bring your house, flatplan in cm. Windows, doors, water -
And get free help to make your new bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, livingroom, office etc. Or plan it your self. I even got help at my home. Didnt cost much.
In Sweden Ikea is considered the poor mans choice.
I would disagree. I know very wealthy people who all own and appeciate ikea products even if its mixed with more luxurious and niche products. IKEA is certainly mainstream so anyone who wants a more unique expression would go for other brands. But a home usually has a lot of stuff and very few people wants to spend luxury money on every mundane thing. A rich person could go to svenssons (a luxury home store) and buy one pillow for their guest house sofa for 150$ or they go to ikea and get 5 pillows and a blanket for the same money. At some point it just becomes silly. you dont become rich by spending your money unwisely. So basically there’s always some room for IKEA even though the ratio of IKEA to other brands in a swedish home differs ☺️
E uma loja com tudo para sua casa
In german IKEA's there's an area called Småland where you can bring your kids before you go shopping. Is this also common in Sweden bc I haven't seen one in this vid?
Yes, it is common in Swedish Ikea stores too.
@magdalenaanderas8229 Thank you
Sadly your closest IKEA store is in Santiago de Chile, I just looked it up.
I went to IKEA today, I’m from Sweden
Meus amigos brasileiros adoram a IKEA, tudo o que você precisa para uma casa em um unico lugar
There is something like 350 IKEA stores worldwide in 48 countries and the closest thing to IKEA in Brazil is probably Tok&Stok, however even if IKEA is considered budget furniture in many parts of the world they would be expensive in Brazil, and no one that can afford buying expensive furniture in Brazil would consider assembling any themselves
There is one IKEA in Santiago de Chile and one in Bogota, Colombia and they had plans before the pandemic to eventually open one in Sao Paulo
Its all IKEA. Food store, resturant, furniture, bedding, all you see is one IKEA.
I think you guys need to see video about what IKEA is. I'd love to react to it.
Also I'm kind of going to spam this channel, because I don't want to say different things in the same post.
If you are in a hurry, IKEA is not for you! Once you get inside you don't be able to get out before you have gone through the whole thing, both first and second floor.
IKEA used to be cheap now i go there for insperation and I still buy alot.
You realize that Sweden was technically a third world country until we joined NATO?
16:23 Swedish person here, i hate i hate i hate fish and seafood!!😅
it is not in a mall it is just the Ikea store
It may be hard to get out of those labyrinths what they are quickly.
and almost every wooden stuff in IKEA come from polish ikea fabric
2:21 no, lol, you can park your car with your wife and barbeque together there :D
Yes america is a part the 3.rd world. A developing country according to most metrics. But i have high hopes.. eeh. mabye mid hopes. .. eh. I went to US in the late 90.s when it was cool. I have some hopes.
Hej från Sverige. Idag beräknas det komma ner 50cm snö och i veckan ska det bli ca -10 c. Då behöver men något på huvudet till exempel en mössa.
Det måste vara väldigt kallt där ni bor för du har alltid mössa på dig 😂.
I keep getting pissed when americans say for example skagen taste like tuna when its shrimps or other comparings to food becaus or food is 1000% better then the crap in murica ofc
You look like a nice American hamburger person. Mvh linda Frida Ansteg Stig Gunnar Fredriksson
I absolutely hate IKEA! Once you get in, you'll have a really hard time finding your way back out. 🖕😠 Never again!!!
What are you talking about?
If you just continue to walk forward, you will eventually reach the exit at the end!
Are you high or something?
😮😮😮😮
Third World country. The UK then?
Why is there no IKEA in Brazil?
Brazil has very high taxes on imported goods, about 75% or more above the FOB cost . Local companies such as Tok & Stok also face this problem, but have probably already optimized their purchases to reduce the tax impact; Ikea also chooses to buy much of its furniture from very strictly managed local subcontractors.
Do you have a contact page where suggestions for videos can be made?
all in the video is the same store
