The company sells four plants located in the Russian Federation. A reduction awaits the employees. 

About this reports to write a number of mass media of the aggressor country.

"Over the last few months, the situation with business processes and supply chains around the world has deteriorated significantly. With that in mind, we don't see a chance for sales to resume in the near future. IKEA's retail business in Russia remains on hold. This decision will cause optimization (retrenchment), which will affect many employees," the IKEA press service said.

According information rosmedia, the management is currently holding an online meeting with employees, who number about 20. Negotiations are about dismissal with the consent of both parties with preliminary payment of several salaries.

It is worth noting that IKEA "paused" its activities in the terrorist country at the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but the brand's products could still be purchased on Russian marketplaces. Probably, in the future such a function will also become impossible for the Russians.
