Ingka Group is constantly reviewing and improving its business to be more resilient and relevant for the future. The company is making significant investments in new and existing stores and creating a unique omnichannel experience while lowering prices and ensuring it continues to deliver the best possible experience for its customers.  

Parag Parekh, Chief Digital Officer (CDO) at Ingka Group, says: “After careful consideration and evaluation of our current operations, Ingka Group has identified opportunities to improve the delivery of digital tools and services to co-workers with speed, scale and flexibility. By partnering with Infosys, we will enhance our core business functions and further streamline operations. We are on a journey to create a better IKEA that is more accessible, affordable, and sustainable for generations to come.” 

Around 350 roles will be impacted across China, France, Germany, India, Poland, Sweden, and the United States.
