KYIV, Sept 13 – Sweden's IKEA, the largest furniture and household goods retailer in the world, plans to expand its network in Kyiv and other cities of Ukraine after testing the first store in Kyiv-based Ocean Mall, which will be opened in summer 2019.
"We want to study and understand the market with the first store, and then, when we feel that we understand the market, we will open other stores in Kyiv and other cities. One year is ideal for studying to get a full cycle... Also we are working to ensure the introduction of online sales as fast as possible," IKEA Southeast Europe CEO Stefan Vanoverbeke said in an interview with Interfax-Ukraine.
