A new store opened in Edmonton, North
London at midnight on 10 February 2005. It attracted over 6,000 visitors
owing to huge opening discounts in the first three opening hours and
resulted in a number of casualties as people were crushed in the rush to
get into the store. The store was closed after only 30 minutes (because
of the large number of customers there were inadequate security staff
and police). The store was re-opened at 5pm on 11 February 2005 with no
additional incident.
IKEA.CA was founded in Sweden by Ingvar Kamprad, but is owned by a
Dutch-registered foundation, controlled by the Kamprad family. Inter
IKEA Systems B.V. is the owner/franchiser of the IKEA trademark and the
IKEA Concept.
It has corporate offices in the Netherlands, Sweden and Belgium. IKEA is
an acronym: Ingvar Kamprad, Elmtaryd, Agunnaryd.
