IKEA has announced the further expansion of its presence in the UK with the upcoming opening of a new Plan and Order Point in Clifton Moor Retail Park, York, its first presence in the city, on Friday 29th August.
IKEA Plan and Order Points are smaller stores, designed to provide customers with bespoke kitchen and storage planning services. They also offer a collection area for online orders, with customers able to return IKEA purchases to the store.
Customers will be able to drop in or book an appointment to start their design with one of six design specialists based in the store, part of the 12-strong York team.
Products can then be ordered from across the full IKEA range for delivery direct to the customer’s home, to the Plan and Order Point, or a Click and Collect location of their choice.
Conor Doherty, IKEA market manager, says: “We’re excited to bring a touch of Swedish design and smart, affordable home solutions to York. Our Plan and Order Points offer the perfect space for customers to create their ideal kitchen or storage setup. Beyond planning, these locations also make it easier for those living further from our Hull, Leeds and Sheffield stores to access our full range, whether they’re shopping for a new sofa, bed, or any other IKEA favourite.”
Luke Charters, MP for York Outer, adds: “I’m delighted to welcome IKEA’s new Plan and Order point to York Outer, due to open in August. It’s a fantastic addition that makes home design more accessible for local households and will bring good jobs to York. This investment shows IKEA’s commitment to our city and will support both creativity and convenience for York residents.”
