According to The Sun , IKEA has announced that it will close all of its locations for 24 hours during the upcoming holiday season, including its stores, warehouses, delivery services, and customer support on Thanksgiving Day.
This closure means that customers hoping to make last-minute purchases will need to wait until the store reopens. In addition to Thanksgiving, IKEA will also be closed on Christmas Day. While many retailers are choosing to close on Thanksgiving, they will reopen for Black Friday sales.
IKEA, a global leader in home furnishings, was founded in Sweden in the 1940s and has since expanded into 63 countries, with 476 stores worldwide.

IKEA’s expansion continues with innovative store formats, and it has even ventured into sustainable housing projects with its tiny home initiative.
