Best Buy Co. Inc. has entered into a partnership with IKEA U.S. to pilot new kitchen and storage planning services in select Best Buy stores. This collaboration aims to provide shoppers with inspiration and planning support for their kitchens and laundry rooms. The partnership combines Best Buy's expertise in major appliances and technology with IKEA's well-designed, functional, and affordable home furnishings. Launching in 10 stores across Florida and Texas, these locations will feature 1,000-square-foot IKEA footprints showcasing inspirational kitchen and laundry room settings. Customers will receive support from IKEA co-workers for home furnishing solutions, while Best Buy staff will offer advice on electronics. Additionally, two stores in Lakeland, Florida, and Alamo Ranch, Texas, will serve as pick-up points for IKEA purchases.
