Bringing Convenience Closer to Home

Following a successful pilot program in Sarpsborg, IKEA is extending its “Click & Get” service to fredrikstad. This initiative allows customers to order online and conveniently pick up thier purchases at a designated Circle K location. the expansion addresses customer demand and aligns with IKEA’s broader sustainability objectives.

The initial launch of “Click & Get” saw significant customer uptake. For example, residents of Sarpsborg were able to collect their ordered goods outside the Circle K station at Alvim.

Fredrikstad Embraces the New Service

The new pickup point will be located at Circle K East side. Customers can place their orders online up to the day before and collect their items on Thursdays between 5 PM and 6 PM. this streamlined process aims to reduce travel time and associated carbon emissions.

We are pleased that in this way we can get even closer to our customers, and create good customer meetings no matter how you choose to shop at IKEA.

Sustainability at the Forefront

IKEA’s commitment to becoming climate-positive by 2030 is a driving force behind the “Click & Get” expansion. By offering a convenient local pickup option, IKEA hopes to reduce the environmental impact of individual customer trips to larger stores. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to minimize the company’s carbon footprint and promote sustainable consumption.

Currently, the transportation sector accounts for a significant portion of global carbon emissions. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), transportation accounted for 27% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in 2020. Initiatives like IKEA’s “Click & Get” can contribute to reducing these emissions by consolidating deliveries and shortening customer travel distances.

Ikea aims to get closer to the many peopel, along with becoming climate-positive by 2030. With the new service we take a new step in the right direction to achieve our goals.

The service is designed to be mutually beneficial, fostering a positive feedback loop were customer convenience and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
