IKEA is one of the largest furniture and decoration stores around the world. Its long-standing presence in the United States has accustomed us to new openings and many shopping centers. However, it also happens that some commercial spaces of the firm, for various reasons, must close their doors. This is the case of one of the IKEA stores in New York.
Over the years and has been establishing itself in the United States, and specifically in New York has a significant presence. However, within the process of business readjustment, the Swedish furniture giant has reported from its own website the need to close one of these stores in New York. Although it may be somewhat sad news for the inhabitants near this mall, IKEA warns us that we can continue shopping in their other store in New York. We will also be able to make returns.
Which IKEA store in New York is closing its doors?
December 3, 2022 will be the last date for the IKEA store in Queens. After two years open, this store will cease to be operational and will definitely close its doors. According to the retailer’s own announcement, this closure is due to the changing needs of its customers. The space, with 115,000 square feet, opened its doors on January 11, 2021. Therefore, it closes with less than two years of opening to the public.
Among the information provided by the firm, it informs us that it will be possible to make purchases until December 3. However, returns were no longer possible since November 19. In fact, returns on purchases made in this commercial space, must be made in other IKEA stores. In case of doubt, the company recommends contacting the IKEA USA customer service center at 1-888-888-4532.
In addition to online shopping, the New York and New Jersey area will now have four IKEA stores instead of five. This readjustment, which was announced some time ago, leaves one of the most emblematic people in the metropolitan area without access to the furniture and decoration elements so characteristic of the Swedish brand.
