commitments (creating long-term partnerships with its
suppliers therefore, by buying large volumes over a
number of years IKEA can negotiate lower prices)
Long-term partnerships with suppliers
Economies of scale (buying raw materials in bulk at
cheaper unit costs)
Delivering products directly from the supplier to IKEA
stores (cuts handling costs, road miles, and lowers the
carbon footprint)
New technologies
Weaknesses:
 The size and scale of the business: This could make it hard to control
standards and quality. Some countries where IKEA products are made
do not implement the legislation to control working conditions. This
could represent a weak link in IKEA’s supply chain, affecting consumer
views of IKEA’s products. The IWAY code is backed up by training and
inspectors visiting factories to make sure that suppliers meet its
requirements. In addition, there is the need for low cost products. This
needs to be balanced against producing good quality.
 Need to differentiate itself and its products from competitors. IKEA
believes there is no compromise between being able to offer good
quality products and low prices.
 IKEA needs to keep good communication with its consumers and other
stakeholders about its environmental activities. The scale of the
business makes communication a difficult task. IKEA produces
publications in print and carries out major TV and radio campaigns to
enable the business to communicate with different target audiences.
Opportunities:
 IKEA provides solutions for a sustainable life at home
with tips and ideas on their website. They also have a
sustainable use of resources by aiming for a zero waste to
landfill, wastewater treatment, and programs to reduce
its use of water.
 IKEA aims to reduce their carbon footprint by reducing
energy use and using renewable energy, and by cutting
their use of air transport and reduce packing.
 IKEA is also adopting social responsibility by the support
for charities such as the World Wildlife Fund (WWF),
UNICEF, and Save the Children.
 IKEA builds trust through good communication with
consumers, co-workers, key opinion former, and the
press.
Threats:
 Social trends such as the slowdown in first time
buyers entering the housing market, is a core market
segment for IKEA products.
 Market forces are more competitors entering the low
price household and furnishing markets. IKEA needs
to reinforce its unique qualities to compete these.
 Economic factors such as the recession, slows down
consumer spending and disposable income
reductions.
