IKEA’s Distribution
 DISTRIBUTION AND WAREHOUSING
 In the process of distribution, suppliers of IKEA use third party logistics companies to
transport their products to various IKEA locations.

 In its high-flow warehouses, IKEA employs automatic storage and retrieval systems to drive
down its costs-per-touch.

 The hallmarks of ikea distribution are :

- Low cots
- Large volumes
- Flat packages (self assembly by customers themselves)
- A global distribution network
 LARGE VOLUMES + FLAT PACKS = LOW COSTS

 IKEA stock incurs low manufacturing costs while meeting strict

requirements for function, efficient distribution, quality, and impact on the
environment.

IKEA seeks to use as few materials as possible to make the furniture, without
compromising on quality or durability.
 DISTRIBUTION CENTERS
 A distribution center for a set of products is a warehouse or other specialized building, often
with refrigeration or air conditioning.

 In 1956, IKEA founder Ingvar Kamprad introduced "flat packing," the method now synonymous
with IKEA that cuts costs by letting consumers purchase their furniture in pieces and assemble it
themselves.

 Design and manufacture of furniture is run by a trust, INGKA Holding, headquartered in Delft,
Holland. While most of the designs of IKEA products are made in Sweden.
 THE TERTIARY SECTOR
In the tertiary sector, IKEA’s retail stores add value to manufactured goods by
providing a form of shopping different to the usual high-street experience.

 These meet the needs of consumers in a number of different ways.
