IKEA has launched a website for its Ukrainian customers.
In addition, the company has kicked off the hiring process (100 employees) for its first urban store in Kyiv.
The first Ukrainian location will be opened by the end of 2019. The company promises to sell there up to 6,000 products. According to UNIAN, the store will work in the shopping center Ocean Mall, which has not yet been put into operation. However, according to NV Business which is citing three sources, the first IKEA store will kick off in Blockbuster Mall shopping and entertainment center of Vagif Aliyev’s Mandarin Plaza Group. The launch at Ocean Mall was canceled due to delays in the deadline.
There is no product range on the Ukrainian site yet. Currently, it displays the company’s history, a form for submitting a CV, and information about the Ukrainian team.
