Anders Alm, Ikea's director for the Canary Islands and the Dominican Republic, says that the opening of a branch of Ikea in Santo Domingo is just a sampling of what the chain has in mind for Latin America. Alm said that Ikea has 260 stores in Europe, Asia, Australia and the US, but the Santo Domingo store will be their first in Latin America. "This is only the start. We have much more to do. Here in Santo Domingo, we will show all that we can do together," said Alm.
Alm said that Ikea would give Latin American shoppers a taste of what the Swedish chain offers. Ikea boasts a wide range of home furnishings that are functional, well designed and at prices so low that anyone can purchase them, as reported in Listin Diario. Ikea is best known for its affordable contemporary design. Its wacky promotions are expected to quickly gain the attention of the Dominican market. DR1 would like to take this opportunity to apologize for confusing Anders Alm with Ikea CEO Anders Dahlvig in a recent news bulletin.
