Johanna Cederlöf: Ikea NZ Market Manager on New Zealand's first Ikea opening in December

from Best of Business · host Newstalk ZB

There's only three months until New Zealand's first Ikea store opens its doors in Auckland's Sylvia Park. The Swedish furniture giant's 34,000 square metre store will host seven-and-a-half thousand products. It'll also see its restaurant open with foods like its famous Swedish meatballs.  Ikea NZ Market Manager Johanna Cederlöf says they've already hired 200 people, with 320 more joining soon. "Every week, it's going to be very busy - so approximately 30 to 80 people joining and onboarding themselves to what will be ahead of them."
