IKEA Plan & Order Point in Aintree, Liverpool, opens today
The Plan & Order Point is situated in the Aintree Racecourse Retail Park and spans over 75 sqm / 800 sqft. Despite being smaller than a standard IKEA store, it is packed with inspirational and affordable kitchen and wardrobe solutions. Customers will find different kitchens to browse, from a complete kitchen, including oven and hob, for under £1,2001 to a kitchen with fronts featuring a foil made of recycled PET bottles. Additionally, IKEA will showcase all its kitchen fronts, worktops and a selection of appliances from the wider range. There’s also a space dedicated to the PAX wardrobe system, with doors, interior organisers, and knobs and handles to help customers build their dream storage solution.
Our investment in Plan & Order Points is part of our long-term plan to transform our retail business, making it easier for people in the Northwest to enjoy what IKEA offers using a variety of convenient ways. Our store in nearby Warrington, at home kitchen planning, online interior design and planning services, and now this new Plan and Order Point all complement each other. Together with our home delivery service and new, convenient collection options, we’re enabling an IKEA that’s there for our customers, however they want to meet us.”
Michael ParkerArea Manager North, IKEA UK
The new store has been carefully designed based on insights around how customers in Merseyside want their dream kitchens brought to life. People in the area have shown a preference for kitchens in traditional styles, often in a U-shape. White is the most popular colour, and those opting for a modern style kitchen, often select a sleek, high gloss white front. However, lately IKEA have seen people choosing more bold yet contemporary colours, such as the AXSTAD blue and STENSUND green. IKEA's wood veneer and wood effect worktops have also proven the most popular to give kitchens that timeless, finishing touch.
Customers can book an appointment, free of charge, to start their design journey with one of IKEA’s planning specialists or use the handy in-store self-service tools to design their own solution. Co-workers will also be on hand to help customers order products from the full IKEA range, for delivery direct to the customer’s home or nearest collection point.
We are thrilled that IKEA’s brand new Plan & Order point opens today in Aintree, creating jobs and opportunities for many Sefton residents. For a global brand such as IKEA to see the potential to grow their business in Sefton, is testament to the hard work carried out by Sefton Council to attract both private and public sector investment to towns across our borough, showing that Sefton really is 'Open For Business'.”
Cllr Marion AtkinsonCabinet Member for Regeneration and Skills, Sefton Council

How it Works
Appointments to consult with one of IKEA’s interior designers must be made in advance via the online booking system.
Once the booking is confirmed, the customer will receive a message to alert them to anything they may need to bring with them to the appointment such as photographs, measurements, etc. What is needed will depend on the service chosen e.g., kitchen, living room, bedroom, or wardrobe.
At the consultation, the customer and the designer will work together to design an interior plan perfect for the customer’s needs and lifestyle. This may take up to two consultations before a plan is finalised, with each consultation being free of charge. The designers will use 3D design technology to give customers a real feel for what their design will look like, with the 3D images being accessible to the customer for up to five days after the consultation.
Once the interior plans have been agreed, IKEA also offers an assembly and installation service.
