Learn How To Reach IKEA Customer Service With Zero Effort!

IKEA is a Swedish furniture retailer and one of the world's largest ones, with stores in 54 countries worldwide. It offers three product categories (Furniture, Lighting & Home décor, and Kitchen Appliances). In 2015, IKEA’s revenue stood at 1.3 trillion SEK ($137 billion).

Since the first IKEA store was opened in Kungens Kurva, Sweden, in 1943, it has become one of the world’s largest furniture retailers.

IKEA was founded by Ingvar Kamprad. It employs over 200,000 people in countries around the world. It’s known for its modern and affordable Scandinavian-inspired designs. The company has been operating for over 70 years, and it makes more than 10,000 products, including sofas, lamps, rugs, desks, armchairs, and more.

If you made a purchase at IKEA and you aren’t satisfied with the products or you have other questions, getting in touch with IKEA customer service should be your next step. A customer service rep can explain how to put the furniture together and provide you with other info you may need.
