The government on May 2 approved IKEA's Rs 10,500 crore proposal for setting up home furnishing stores in the country. As on date, the Swedish retail major's investment is the largest in the single-brand segment ever since the government allowed 100 per cent foreign investment in this sector last year.
The firm had proposed setting up 10 furnishing and homeware stores as well as allied infrastructure in over 10 years in India. Subsequently, it plans to open 15 more stores.
The company has been sourcing many products from India for the past 25 years.
IKEA has also been allowed to run cafes and restaurants within its single brand stores in India, but it cannot sell packed food items. It can sell food and beverages at its restaurants/cafes located within its stores.
