What does this establish for freight buyers?
Reuters reported November 6 that IKEA’s annual retail sales fell 2% to €43.8 billion for the fiscal year ending August 31. Management cited weaker purchasing efficiency and higher freight expenses linked to Gulf-conflict energy costs. The sales figure covers the IKEA retail system; it is not Inter IKEA’s own revenue or a measure of freight spending.
