IKEA announces 100th Tesco Click & Collect point
IKEA has opened its 100th mobile pick-up point following a successful nationwide roll-out in a partnership with Tesco.
Customers can use the service at Tesco stores by placing their order on IKEA.com, through the IKEA App or with the assistance of an IKEA staff member, either remotely or in-store. Orders can then be collected the following day from the customer’s local participating Tesco store within one of two daily collection windows.
The scheme was initially launched as a pilot in 2022 before a national roll-out began late last year. Following the opening of the 100th pick-up point, IKEA plans to open an additional 100 pick-up points, with half of them due to open this year.
The service is free of charge for orders over £100 and costs £5 for orders below that amount.
Jakob Bertilsson, country customer fulfilment manager, IKEA UK, said: “As we continue to see a shift in our visitors’ wants to shop even more conveniently, we need to constantly develop and improve with better and more affordable services.
“Our ambitions to double our Click & Collect offering, combined with the strengthening of services such as IKEA Home Delivery, means we are now closer than ever to people in all parts of the UK.”
Simon Williams, Tesco’s assets and estates director, added: “We’re always looking for ways to serve our customers better and help make their shop even more convenient.
“We are proud of this 100th Click & Collect point milestone and hope this continues to improve the shopping experience for Tesco and IKEA customers.”
IKEA also offers collection services through over 10,000 local DPD points, as well as same day, free click and collect across all IKEA stores. Customers can also collect orders from 20 Shift self-serve lockers in London.
In addition, the retailer is piloting branded IKEA lockers at Tesco stores in some parts of the country this summer.
