IKEA Kelowna: Bringing Swedish Design Closer to Home
IKEA Canada is thrilled to announce the grand opening of its newest Plan and Order Point in Kelowna, British Columbia! This exciting development marks a significant step in IKEA’s commitment to making affordable and stylish home furnishings more accessible to Canadians, particularly those in the Thompson-Okanagan region.
What is a Plan and Order Point?
The Kelowna location is the second of its kind in BC and the 12th across Canada. Unlike traditional IKEA stores, Plan and Order Points focus on providing personalized design services. Customers can schedule appointments with IKEA experts to plan, order, and purchase complex home furnishing solutions for kitchens, bedrooms, living rooms, and bathrooms. This is a fantastic option for those seeking expert advice and customized solutions without the need to travel long distances.
Convenience and Accessibility
Located at 1500 Banks Rd, Unit 103, the Kelowna Plan and Order Point offers a convenient alternative for residents who previously faced a four-hour drive to the nearest full-size IKEA store. Orders can be delivered directly to your home or picked up at the Kelowna location. The point also features a selection of popular IKEA products (excluding food) available for immediate purchase and takeaway.
Grand Opening Celebration
The grand opening event was attended by key figures including representatives from IKEA Canada, the Government of British Columbia, Kelowna City Council, and the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce. Speakers highlighted IKEA’s dedication to affordability, accessibility, and sustainability.
“Guided by our vision to create a better everyday life for the many, we are taking bold steps to make IKEA more accessible, affordable, and sustainable to our customers no matter how they choose to shop with us,” says Selwyn Crittendon, CEO and Chief Sustainability Officer, IKEA Canada.
Design Inspiration and Expert Advice
Spanning 7,728 square feet, the Kelowna Plan and Order Point showcases a variety of design inspirations, including:
- 12 kitchen displays
- 9 bedroom displays
- 4 bathroom displays
- 2 living room displays
A dedicated team of 20 IKEA experts is on hand to provide advice and help customers create beautiful, functional, and inspiring spaces tailored to their individual needs and budgets.
