IKEA

Ecommerce growth

IKEA, the world-renowned home furnishings brand, was looking for ways to expand its digital footprint and enhance its e-commerce capabilities. The brand wanted to connect more effectively with customers who prefer online shopping, deliver an improved digital experience, and stay ahead of competitors in a rapidly evolving market.

About IKEA

IKEA is a global leader in affordable, stylish home furnishings, known for its vast network of large stores worldwide. With a focus on high-quality yet affordable furniture and home goods, IKEA has built a strong reputation for innovation, sustainability, and customer-centricity. Despite its success in physical retail, IKEA recognized the growing importance of e-commerce and set out to strengthen its digital presence.

The challenge

IKEA faced a significant challenge: adapting its traditionally store-focused business model to an increasingly digital marketplace. The company needed to address several key issues:

  • Enhancing the Online Shopping Experience: IKEA needed to create an engaging and user-friendly digital platform that mirrored the in-store experience.
  • Reaching Digital Customers: With more customers opting for the convenience of online shopping, IKEA had to find effective ways to engage these digital-first consumers.
  • Competing with E-Commerce Giants: The brand faced tough competition from other e-commerce giants and niche home furnishings retailers that were already established online.
  • Improving Delivery and Fulfillment: As part of the digital shift, IKEA needed to streamline its logistics and delivery processes to meet customer expectations for fast, reliable service.
