IKEA just opened its first Plan and Order Shop at TriNoma in Quezon City, making its signature style of affordable, sustainable, and Scandinavian-coded home furnishings accessible to more people—especially those living in the north of Metro Manila who are looking for expert planning advice and to shop select IKEA products available in the store.
The 500-square-meter IKEA Plan and Order Shop is like a gateway to the full IKEA experience that customers can find in the Pasay City branch. Its main feature is the planning service for kitchen cabinets and wardrobes for bedrooms and living rooms. It also has inspiring vignettes that show how furniture pieces, lighting, and décor can come together. Customers can also browse and order from the full IKEA range of more than 8,500 articles, and have items delivered in the store.
IKEA Philippines Country Retail Manager Ricardo Pinheiro says, “Almost four years ago, IKEA said its first ‘hello’ to the Philippines when we opened our first store in Pasay City. Today, I’m proud to share that we’re now in Quezon City with our first Plan and Order Shop at TriNoma, in collaboration with Ayala Malls.”

Pinheiro explains that while the compact shop offers select cooking and eating accessories, all products can be ordered online for free collection at the shop. It is also designed as a pick-up and planning hub. “They can sit down with our design specialists at the consultation and planning zone. They can also shop and take away on the same day items in the curated displays,” he says.
“Our philosophy is to make great design available to the many Filipinos who dream of spaces that bring them joy and closer to each other, especially around Christmastime,” Pinheiro adds.
The store opening was marked by a ceremonial tape-cutting led by QC Mayor Joy Belmonte, Ambassador of Sweden to the Philippines Anna Ferry, Ayala Land SVP and Head of Leasing and Hospitality, Mariana Zobel Ayala, and IKEA Philippines Country Retail Manager Ricardo Pinheiro.
TriNoma serves the large residential markets of Quezon City, Caloocan, Malabon, Navotas and Valenzuela. It is also a gateway to the northern provinces of Bulacan and Pampanga, and the rest of Central Luzon, with easy access via the North Luzon Expressway and Skyway 3.
The IKEA Plan and Order Shop is a cashless shop — it accepts only digital and cards payments. Located on Level 1, TriNoma Mall, North Avenue corner EDSA, Quezon City. Shoppers can also order online on IKEA Philippine’s website.
