IKEA Canada is set to open a new Plan and order point at Les Promenades Gatineau on Monday, May 11, 2026. The store will provide customers with a unique shopping experience focused on planning and ordering furniture with the help of IKEA specialists.
What to Expect
The Plan and order point is designed for customers who want to design their dream kitchen, wardrobe, or home office. Unlike a traditional IKEA store, this location will not carry inventory but will offer expert advice, planning tools, and the ability to order products for delivery or pickup.
Customers can book free one-on-one sessions with IKEA planners to discuss their needs and create personalized solutions. The store will also feature product displays and samples to inspire customers.
Convenient Location
Les Promenades Gatineau is a major shopping center in the Outaouais region, making it accessible to residents of Gatineau and Ottawa. The new IKEA point will be located near other retail stores, offering a convenient stop for shoppers.
This opening is part of IKEA Canada's strategy to expand its presence in urban areas and provide more flexible shopping options. The company has been testing Plan and order points in other Canadian cities, and the Gatineau location is expected to be well-received.
Community Impact
The new store is expected to create local jobs and offer a new way for customers to interact with the brand. IKEA Canada emphasizes sustainability and aims to reduce waste by focusing on made-to-order products. The Plan and order point aligns with this goal by minimizing inventory and allowing for more efficient production.
Customers interested in visiting can find the store on the lower level of Les Promenades Gatineau, near the food court. Operating hours will be Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
