IKEA to open its first store in Bahrain

IKEA Saudi Arabia have announced plans to open a 30,000 square metre flagship store in the Bahraini capital of Manama.

With the land already purchased and the first initial design phase finalised and submitted, the Swedish retail outlet will open in Bahrain in the next three years.

Since its establishment in the region, IKEA has opened three stores in Saudi Arabia, in Jeddah, Riyadh and Dhahran and is planning ten more stores in the kingdom in coming years.

The Dhahran store in the Eastern Province, at such close proximity to Bahrain, will serve the Saudi market as well as the Bahraini market until the launch of the store in Manama.
