Ikea plans to open 100 more click-and-collect points at Tesco stores throughout the UK, following the successful roll-out of its 100th mobile pick-up point. This initiative aims to enhance accessibility for customers, providing a next-day collection service free for orders over GBP 100, and costing GBP 5 for smaller orders. By the end of the expansion, more than 90% of consumers will be within 5 miles of a collection point.
