SUNRISE, FL, October 1, 2007 – IKEA, the world’s leading home furnishings retailer, today announced that its future Sunrise, Florida store will open at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, October 17, 2007. IKEA Sunrise will be the Swedish company’s first store and restaurant destination in Florida, the 2nd in the Southeast, and 32nd in the U.S. Until the 293,000 square-foot future IKEA Sunrise opens in Broward County, customers can shop at IKEA Atlanta, which opened in 2005, or online at www.IKEA-USA.com. Other Florida stores will open on November 14 in Orlando and Summer 2009 in Tampa.
“Due to the progress made throughout the year, and with the assistance of the professional staff at the City of Sunrise, we are confident all remaining milestones in the interior build-up process will be complete by mid-October,” said Peter Steinweg, store manager of IKEA Sunrise. “Now our primary objective is to continue training the nearly 400 local hires who will be joining the IKEA coworker family before we open.”
IKEA Sunrise will present 10,000 exclusively-designed items, 50 room settings, three complete model homes, a supervised children’s play area and a 250-seat restaurant serving Swedish specialties such as meatballs with lingonberries or salmon plates, as well as American dishes. Family-friendly features include a ‘Children’s IKEA’ area in the showroom, baby care rooms, preferred parking and play areas throughout the store.
The 293,000-square-foot future IKEA Sunrise is located on 20 acres at the northwestern corner of I-595/SR-84 and N.W. 136th Avenue as part of the 25-acre “Gateway at Sawgrass” retail center being built by Ft. Lauderdale-based Stiles Corporation. This new IKEA store created 500 construction jobs and on October 17 will welcome 400 new coworkers into the IKEA family of more than 11,000 in the U.S. and 100,000 globally. Although the future IKEA Sunrise is almost complete with the outfitting phase of the build-up process, prospective coworkers still are welcome to apply for diverse positions available in a variety of functions (www.IKEA-USA.com).
There currently are more than 260 IKEA stores in 36 countries, including 31 in the U.S., where stores are being planned in: Brooklyn, NY; Charlotte, NC; Orlando, FL; Somerville, MA; Sunrise, FL; Tampa, FL; and West Chester, OH.
IKEA believes home is the most important place in the world and, since its 1943 founding in Sweden, has offered a wide range of home furnishings and accessories of good design and function, at low prices so the majority of the people can afford them. IKEA has been ranked in FORTUNE’s annual “100 Best Companies to Work For” list (three years in a row), Working Mother magazine’s annual list of “100 Best Companies for Working Mothers” (four years in a row) and Training magazine’s annual “Top 100” ranking of companies that excel at human capital development (five years in a row). IKEA incorporates environmentally friendly and socially responsible efforts into day-to-day business, and continually supports initiatives that benefit causes such as children and the environment.
