KAARST, Germany—IKEA wants to roll out furniture rental to all its main markets in a bid to appeal to its increasingly environmentally conscious and transient customers.
The world’s biggest furniture group, known for its low-cost disposable items, first said it was looking into leasing its desks, beds, and sofas in February. It fleshed out its plans on Wednesday at an event held at its first ’sustainable' store in Kaarst, western Germany, opened in 2017.
