IKEA U.S. announces plans for a new store at the Destiny USA shopping center in Syracuse, New York. IKEA Syracuse will be the third store in the state, joining locations in Brooklyn and Long Island, and will bring the IKEA experience closer to the many people of the Syracuse metro area.
“We are thrilled to offer Syracuse metro area residents more ways to shop and experience IKEA.” said Javier Quiñones, CEO & chief sustainability officer, IKEA U.S. “The opening of IKEA Syracuse highlights our commitment to bring IKEA closer to the many people and make it easier and more affordable to access our home furnishing products and solutions.”
At IKEA Syracuse, customers will be able to explore a nearly 70,000 square-foot space designed to inspire and provide solutions for a better life at home. The store will showcase a variety of fully furnished room settings, each offering “local living” solutions thoughtfully tailored to reflect the unique everyday needs of the Syracuse community. Customers will find a curated selection of more than 3,000 products available for immediate takeaway, including home furnishing accessories and approximately 75 small furniture items. Larger pieces, such as sofas and beds, along with the entire IKEA range, can be conveniently ordered online with options for free store pickup or home delivery at a minimal fee.
IKEA Syracuse will feature a central planning area where customers design and order home furnishing solutions with support from an IKEA team member for spaces that require a bit more help – such as kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms. In addition to these services, customers can savor the Swedish food experience with a variety of hot and cold IKEA favorites like meatballs, plant balls, hot dogs, veggie dogs, plant dogs, cinnamon buns, and more—available to enjoy in-store or take home for later.
As part of IKEA’s commitment to sustainability, the store also includes an As-is Department, offering gently used products, discontinued items, and even more affordable furnishings—giving products a second life and helping customers furnish their homes more sustainably. Online shoppers will have the option to pick up qualifying IKEA-USA.com orders by selecting IKEA Syracuse as their preferred pick-up location at checkout. In the meantime, customers can pick up orders from the convenient pick-up location at 4530 S. Steelway Boulevard, Liverpool, NY 13090 by selecting “RXO Syracuse-Liverpool, NY Pick-up point” at checkout.
“As a proud Syracuse University alumnus, I’m thrilled to announce the opening of IKEA Syracuse,” said Scott Kay, market manager, IKEA Paramus. “I have many fond memories of my time in Syracuse, and I’m excited to bring the IKEA experience and stylish, functional, and affordable home furnishings to both students and residents of Syracuse. Go Orange!”
