Conshohocken, Pa. — IKEA plans to open four additional U.S. stores in 2026 — in Chicago; Tulsa, Okla.; Fort Collins, Colo.; and Los Angeles — further building on the six locations previously announced and bringing the current total number to 10 new stores slated to open in 2026.
“FY25 was a year of meaningful connection and growth despite a challenging external environment. We strengthened our ability to serve customers through new store formats, digital innovation and expanded rewards, all while reinforcing our commitment to communities and the environment,” says Rob Olson, interim CEO of IKEA U.S. “Looking ahead to FY26, we will build on this momentum, focusing on continued investment in the U.S. to make IKEA more affordable, accessible and sustainable.”
In FY25, IKEA advanced its efforts to grow brand presence and make shopping more convenient by opening 14 new retail locations, including two new small-format stores in Arcadia, Calif.; and San Marcos, Texas. Nine Plan & Order Points with integrated pickup services were also launched in key markets such as Charlotte, N.C.; Roseville, Minn,; Ontario, Calif.; and Colma, Calif. At the same time, IKEA continued enhancing its existing store network.
The 2026 new store openings include:
• IKEA Culver City, Los Angeles’ first city-center store
• IKEA Tulsa, the first IKEA store in Oklahoma
• IKEA Gurnee Mills in the Chicago area
• IKEA Fort Collins, joining IKEA Centennial and IKEA Colorado Springs in Colorado
