...Case Study of IKEA’s Global Sourcing Challenge In 1995, IKEA met a problem that its main supplier, Indian rugs, used the child labor to produce products, although they had signed an attachment of the contract to ban employing child labor. In addition, a German documentary maker was about to broadcast the problem of child labor on German television and also invited an employee from IKEA to have a live discussion in the TV program. Marianne Barner, the leader of IKEA, must find a great solution to this serious issue to both save her business and the corporation’s brand image. In this issue, IKEA was not the one who produced products, so they might not realize the use of child labor in the process of production. In addition, child labor did not attract lots of attention from the society at that time, so they did not pay attention to the use of child labor when they were finding their suppliers. However, they sold terminal products so they were to blame. As a result, Marianne had to make several decisions, respectively about whether IKEA should accept the invitation to join the TV program, how to deal with the broken contract with Rangan Exports, how to deal with the child labor on the long term and whether IKEA should use Rugmark. To address this problem and make these decisions, IKEA has four choices. One is that IKEA could utilize its own relationship with its suppliers to solve the issue. The second choice for IKEA is to invite Rugmark Foundation on its behalf to monitor the...

...Date: September 25, 1986 Subject: Responding to Sears “Elements” Line of furniture Issue/Problem The Canadian furniture market has brought success to IKEA Canada due to the high quality and low priced “quick-assembly” furniture designed by IKEA’s European engineers. However, this success brought many imitators. Sears Canada has recently published a new catalogue that includes a new line of furniture called “Elements”. The new line of furniture very much resembles IKEA’s knock-down, self-assembled line. IKEA is facing an imitation threat and should tactically respond to minimize its effects. Recommendations IKEA is considered to be a low cost, high quality producer in the furniture industry, therefore it is important to spread that image among consumers. IKEA should expand its target market and reach out to more customers. This can be accomplished by increasing the number of catalogues published every year. In addition, IKEA should re-establish its mail ordering system and minimize its mail orders losses. This can be accomplished by adding a convenience fee which covers handling, shipping and packaging. Discussion Industry Analysis Canadian consumption of furniture accounted for $2 billion dollar in 1985 making the industry a mature one with 1,400 manufacturers. Retailers on the other hand are divided into three types: independent such as the Brick and Leaon’s, speciality chains such as IKEA and department stores such as Eaton’s and Sears. Canadian produced...

...be the following: IKEA sells the same furniture all over the world, so IKEA rips huge economies of scale from the size of its stores and the big production runs necessary to stock them. IKEA also offers a low competitive price because of the economies of scale (30% lower than competitors) Exclusive relationship between IKEA and its suppliers, offering modern and exclusive designs for IKEA. Designers also work closely with suppliers, keeping the costs low. Ready-to-assemble kits help to stack products in shelves in order to maintain larger inventories. The cash and carry shopping formula; you can go to the rack directly to collect the product and go home to build it by yourself. Successful use of the word of mouth and the use of catalogues in order to reduce the advertising costs. IKEA has simple and plain staff levels, lowering the fixed costs and giving more freedom to its employees. This management structure also helps making decisions in a faster way. 2. What are the cultural factors that make expansion abroad in retailing difficult? What has made it possible in IKEA’s case? Ikea has encountered many problems when entering the U.S. market because it had to adapt its products and its shopping style to the American standards. IKEA had to redesign its beds because the American citizens were not buying the European size beds (Beds in America are wider than in Europe). We can see an adaptation to the American shopping culture in the installation of new cash registers...

...After a few years of IKEA undergoing speculation of unreliable suppliers in countries such as India, Pakistan, and Nepal whom used child labor freely throughout their practices, Ikea’s business area manager of carpets, Marianne Barner, was faced with a dilemma that she was quickly forced to overcome, change, and improve. In 1995, a well-known German TV reporter broadcasted an ongoing investigation report naming a main supplier of Ikea used child labor in their work place. Although this supplier claimed to recently sign an agreement in their IKEA contract forbidding the use of child labor or else termination, recent video and still-photographs have proved otherwise. In a whirl-wind of events, Barner was forced to look into alternatives to help save the reputation and image of IKEA as well as maintaining a profit. Three of these alternatives that Barner juggled that were stated within the case included: 1. Sign up to an industry wide response to growing concerns of child labor in India – monitoring manufacturers, importers, and retailers to use the new label of RUGMARK: a label on carpets that states they were made without the use of child labor. 2. Barner started conversing with the Swedish “Save the Children” organization who urged Ikea to respond to this situation in “the best interest of these children,” whatever that change may be. 3. Cut the use of these companies within India to lessen the loss of a profit for the company IKEA. Before investigating...

...“IKEA Solution” IKEA is a Swedish company producing home furnishing products at low prices to make them affordable to people. The company was founded in 1943 by Ingvar Kamprad and kept growing tremendously from 2 stores in 1964 to 114 stores in 1994 to 231 stores in 2007 in 24 countries welcoming a total of 522 million visitors. Besides its success stories, the company has faced environmental and social issues. IKEA’s Global Sourcing Challenge involving Indian rugs as well as child labor is a complicated case of social issues. Whenever a company founds itself involved in a child labor controversy, it can severely damage the customer’s perception of the company. This impact can prove to be irreversible. In 1994, a Swedish television network showed a documentary film about children working in Pakistan, targeting IKEA. In India, IKEA faced criticism about child labor from various international organizations. In the spring of 1995, another film is threaten to be shown on German television about children working at looms at Rangan Exports, a company used by IKEA and the producer then invited IKEA to send someone to take part in a live discussion during the airing of the program. These events urged the company to consider environmental and social issues more seriously, and therefore, find a solution. Just like any other globalizaed company, IKEA needs to get the cheapest supplies and therefore go to countries that offer cheap labor. However, developing countries involved...

...IKEA Case 1) IKEA’s vision to “create a better life for the many people” defined IKEA as a company and separated them from their competitors. In the early years of the company, IKEA faced many hardships from the cartel of furniture manufacturers who controlled the Swedish industry to keep prices high. To counteract these hardships, IKEA created a unique business model that was different from competitors. This model included key features such as the use of a catalog and having self-assembled furniture, which saved the company on transportation and storage costs. Ingvar Kamprad, founder of IKEA, developed the strategy of selling affordable, good-quality furniture to mass-market consumers around the world. Another important part of IKEA’s vision was their relationship with their suppliers. Kamprad wanted to develop close ties by supporting its suppliers with long-term relationships. A manager in the case states, “We commit to doing all we can to keep them competitive—as long as they remain equally committed to us.” IKEA also serviced customers with features such as a playroom for children, a low-priced restaurant, and grocery store. All of these features were highly beneficial and profitable for IKEA while also helping everyone (suppliers, customers, etc.), as their mission strives for. Although IKEA had achieved success with their business model and vision, they experienced multiple environmental and social issues that tarnished to company’s image and reputation...
