Hej Richmond, here we grow again!
At IKEA Canada, we have exciting plans to expand IKEA Richmond.
We know you have some questions, let us help!
What’s happening at IKEA Richmond?
IKEA Richmond is expanding to increase fulfilment capacity (the store is still operating as normal).
The expansion will service millions of British Columbians and the construction process will create local jobs in Richmond.
How long will the construction take?
The expansion is scheduled to open in 2027. Throughout the project, there will be different types of construction work being done at the site. From now until Spring 2026, piling will be conducted at the site. IKEA is committed to keeping co-workers, customers and the community informed, including sharing our construction work schedule.
When will the construction take place?
| In the city of Richmond, BC, construction noise is permitted from: | Current work schedule | Exceptions |
|---|---|---|
| Monday - Fridays, 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. | Monday - Fridays, 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. | *Piling activity will be paused from Dec 24, 2025 to Jan 4, 2026, resuming on Jan 5, 2026 |
| Saturdays, 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. | Saturdays, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. | |
| Sundays and all statutory holidays, construction noise is prohibited | Sundays, no work scheduled |
Will there be any impact to the neighbourhood because of the construction?
IKEA will do its best to minimize any impact and keep co-workers, customers, and the community informed throughout the project. We are committed to following city bylaws and are working with the City of Richmond to ensure that we align with rules and standards. IKEA has implemented mitigations such as noise dampening blankets and a staggered piling process to help lower noise levels. We continue to explore additional strategies and will share updated information with the community.
