IKEA Opens Pilot Second-Hand Store In Sweden

IKEA is a multinational group of Swedish companies headquartered in Delft, Netherlands, that designs and sells ready-to-assemble furniture, kitchen appliances, and home accessories, among other useful goods and occasionally home services.

The world’s leading furniture brand, IKEA will soon open their first second-hand furniture store in Sweden.

According to Jonas Carlehed, Head of Sustainability Division IKEA Sweden Branch, used items received will be repaired at a nearby workshop and will be sold at a lower price than the original price.

The pilot store aims to help IKEA become circular and reach climate targets

1. The goods come from local recycling centers

2. They are repaired and restored

3. They are sold at lower prices

“The goal for us here at IKEA is to have moved to a totally circular, sustainable and profitable business model by 2030 and that is everything from how we manufacture our products to how we take care of our products that have been with our customers and see how we can prolong the life of the products,” he added.
