About the Area

Core Business Retail Concept is dedicated to protecting, expanding, and developing the IKEA Concept and the IKEA Brand in both existing and new markets. This involves sharing IKEA knowledge and learning across the franchise system.

At IKEA, we do things a bit differently. We think differently, act differently, and work differently. We enjoy challenging norms, creating innovative products like music-playing lamps, beds disguised as sofas, and plantballs that contribute to sustainability. All of this is aligned with our vision: to create a better everyday life for the many people. This vision has motivated our co-workers for over 75 years. By 2030, we aim to help millions more look forward to going home. Maybe you can help us?
