For 20 years Arizona had 1 IKEA. Now there will be 3. What to know
Until recently, IKEA had one store in metro Phoenix: the one in Tempe. But, just like that, soon there will be three. Swedish furniture and home goods giant IKEA announced plans to open a third Valley location, this one in Phoenix, on May 7, the same day it opened a new-look IKEA in Scottsdale. The store, which will be a smaller format than a traditional IKEA store, is planned to open early next year, the company announced. 'We are thrilled to offer Phoenix metro area residents more ways to shop and experience IKEA.' Javier Quiñones, CEO & chief sustainability officer for IKEA U.S., said in a statement. 'These new locations highlight 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.' It will be in the Village Square II shopping center at Cactus Road and Tatum Boulevard. It is across the street from the former Paradise Valley Mall, now called PV, which is in the middle of a major redevelopment. The store is one level and covers approximately 75,000 square feet. It will offer customers access to over 23,000 items, primarily consisting of home furnishing accessories and about 75 small furniture items. The store will also have a new Swedish Deli concept, offering a variety of hot and cold food to eat on site or take home. This includes meatballs, plant balls, hot dogs, veggie dogs, plant dogs and cinnamon buns. IKEA opened its second Arizona location, a small-format store at the Scottsdale Promenade, on May 7, the same day it announced plans for the Phoenix store. The Scottsdale location is a small format 'plan and order point' where customers can browse the showroom and talk to employees about their plans for their homes, and order items. There is no stock at the studio, all the items are ordered. There is a full-format IKEA store on West IKEA Way in Tempe, near Interstate 10 and Warner Road. It opened in 2004. In 2017, IKEA announced plans to open a full-size store in Glendale, but that never came to fruition and the company canceled plans for the location in 2018. The site IKEA had eyed is now the site where VAI Resort is under construction, near Loop 101 and Cardinals Way. Reach the reporter at cvanek@ Follow her on X, formerly Twitter @CorinaVanek.
