IKEA Korea, KRW 39,000 delivery fee for orders over KRW 500,000 won

[Seoul – November 3] Home furnishing retailer IKEA Korea announced that it will introduce a new furniture delivery rate that allows furniture products to be delivered at a lower price. As part of the acceleration of omni-channel growth that provides both products and services at more affordable prices and enhances customer shopping convenience, a delivery fee of KRW 39,000 will be applied to all online and offline customers who make orders of over KRW 500,000 from November 4.
IKEA Korea is improving the shopping convenience for customers by diversifying delivery services according to volume and weight so that the many can experience IKEA’s home furnishings at reasonable prices as interest in the homes and home decorating increases due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year, IKEA has already launched a new delivery service consisting of KRW 3,000 / KRW 5,000 / KRW 8,000 interval rates and introduced an “External pick-up point service (KRW 19,000)” to improve accessibility for customers who have difficulty visiting stores. The newly introduced furniture delivery service is viable for orders up to 5 cubic meters (m3) in size (approximately the size of 2.5 two-door refrigerators), making it a more reasonable option for customers who purchase bulky furniture or a large number of products.
“IKEA hopes to provide the many with IKEA home furnishings and solutions at a more convenient and lower price anytime, anywhere,” said Nicolas Johnsson, Country Commercial Manager at IKEA Korea. “We will continue to provide affordable services to help make the home a more meaningful space for the many to spend a happier life at home.”
IKEA is strengthening the omni-channel shopping experience by providing more sustainable and lower-priced products, as well as various services such as delivery, assembly, and installation at more convenient and reasonable prices, while also continuing efforts for sustainability such as transporting products in the flat pack to reduce volume, costs, and carbon emissions.
