IKEA leases out one lakh sq ft land in Bengaluru

Swedish multinational furniture retail conglomerate IKEA is eyeing a small-store format, spread over 100,000 sq ft, in Whitefield, Bengaluru.

IKEA, which opened its first store in Hyderabad in 2018, has also invested in a 14 acre land parcel in Nagasandra, Bengaluru, for a large format store.

Earlier, IKEA India had told the media that small format stores would be city centre stores and would have the same look and feel as any other IKEA store.

The small format store in Whitefield will have a smaller range on display, and the presentation will be different. IKEA has set up a 270,000 sq ft distribution centre in Pune in partnership with IndoSpace Industrial Park, which is leased at a cost of Rs 20 crore per year. It has also earmarked a Rs 750 crore expansion plan.
