What can we expect?

The measures will be similar to that of other country’s where IKEA has reopened, like in Germany (shown below). Much like other stores operating during the lockdown, only a limited number of customers will be granted entry into the store. There will also be restricted car parking.

Any big family trips to IKEA are still on hold as only one adult and one child per household will be permitted in-store at any one time. Customers are also encouraged to come with ready-made lists and their own bags, rather than just browsing.

The superstore has introduced hand sanitiser facilities, with deep cleaning routines for bags, trolleys, bathrooms and touchscreens. There will also be screens at checkout, service points and customer returns.

While customers won’t be able to eat in-store, the Swedish Food Market will be open. Customers will be able to purchase those famous meatballs to eat at home.
