As part of its ongoing expansion plans, IKEA will be opening the doors of its eighth Plan and Order Point and tenth overall store in Ireland, located in Galway on August 27.
Located at Gateway Retail Park, the new store will be IKEA’s largest location outside Dublin and the first in the West of Ireland to offer the Plan and Order Point experience.
Spanning 788 m² across two levels, the Galway Plan and Order Point is meticulously designed to inspire. The store will feature a range of 250 home furnishing accessories and a curated selection of 25 bestselling furniture lines available for immediate takeaway.
In addition to the takeaway items, the store will also showcase 30 fully displayed home furnishing solutions, including 12 kitchen vignettes, 10 PAX and PLATSA wardrobe setups, 3 living room vignettes, and 2 inspiring roomsets.
The Plan and Order Point will also serve as a high-capacity Click & Collect service, offering up to 100 local pickup slots per day, allowing customers to order any item from the full IKEA range and collect it locally free of charge.
The store will also serve as a local returns location, and will operate on a cashless basis, accepting card and digital payments only. The opening demonstrates IKEA’s commitment to the local economy, with 13 new co-workers from the Galway area recruited to support customers in designing their dream homes.
