World-famous furniture firm slashes prices on hundreds of products in 22 stores
The retailer said the cuts are permanent and include 1,000 in-store-only discounts of up to 25% on furniture and home essentials.
On Friday, August 28, IKEA implemented a permanent 'New Lower Prices' scheme across hundreds of UK products available online and in-store, helping customers budget for everyday home essentials.
Founded in 1943 by 17-year-old Ingvar Kamprad, the company originally sold small goods before expanding into furniture by 1948; it entered the British market in 1987, opening its first store in Warrington.
Specific price reductions include the HEMNES daybed, now £279, reduced by 15% from £329, while the KALLAX shelving unit is available for £49, marking an 18% decrease from its previous £60 price tag.
Beyond these permanent savings, the company is offering more than 1,000 exclusive in-store-only discounts up to 25%, alongside a seasonal sale covering throws and cookware from September 7 to November 1.
Operating 22 UK locations, the retailer employs nearly 12,000 staff members; the brand continues managing its global footprint, having expanded into markets including Australia, Canada, and Germany by the 1970s.
