Ikea Expands Beyond Metros, Eyes Quick Commerce
Ikea India is planning to grow by opening more stores in new cities beyond the big metros.
They are also looking into quick delivery services and selling through other online platforms.
The company has promised to invest a lot of money to make this happen.
They want to make sure that their customers have a good experience, not just add more ways to buy their products.
Ikea already sells a lot online and plans to keep doing so.
They are opening a new store in Delhi soon and have big plans for stores in Noida and Gurugram too.
Ikea India is evaluating entry into quick commerce and third-party e-commerce platforms.
The company has doubled its investment commitment to Rs 21,000 crore by 2030.
Ikea plans to expand to around 30 stores by the end of the decade.
The retailer is looking beyond major metros to new cities for expansion.
Ikea will open its second Delhi city-format store at DLF Avenue, Saket, on July 30.
