IKEA Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG: IKEA Saarlouis – A piece of Sweden

“We want to offer a wide range of well-de­­­­­­signed, functional home furnishing pro­­­­d­­­ucts at prices so low that as many peo­­­­ple as possible will be able to afford them.” In­­g­­var Kamprad’s business idea from 1958 laid the foundation for a company whose name is setting global standards to­­day. The broad range of products of­­fer­­ed by IKEA Saarlouis comprises 8,500 high-quality items, with a good price-performance ratio. The in­­spiring examples and Swedish design are evi­­dence of home furnishing competence and creativity and our customers are rea­­p­­­ing the benefits. IKEA not only stands for furniture and accessories. In addition to family friendliness and social commitment, environmental issues already played a great role in the construc­­tion of the fur­­nishing house in Saarlouis. In 2003 this earned the store admittance to the environ­mental in­­itiative “Umweltpakt Saar” and the award “Grüne Haus­­num­­mer”.
