IKEA has 14 stores in Russia in Mega shopping centers, as well as several IKEA City stores and design studios.
The retailer also has four factories: in the Moscow region (Esipovo), Leningrad and Kirov regions (in Tikhvin and Krasnaya Polyana, respectively) and in Veliky Novgorod. The income of Ikea Dom LLC in 2021 reached 157.3 billion rubles, which is 27.8% more than a year earlier (123.1 billion rubles).
