Ikea shoppers will continue to see lower prices at its stores in 2025, but don’t expect anything like this year, the Swedish home-furnishings giant warned.

After slashing prices for retailers by 15% in 2024 — which enabled Ikea stores to cut prices to consumers by 10% and was “exceptional” — more “normal” levels are in the cards, according to Henrik Elm, chief financial officer of Inter Ikea Group, the worldwide franchiser for the brand.
