When you order something online from IKEA- the vast majority of it gets shipped from somewhere else be that Britain or Sweden.  That should change from today when IKEA opens up its 27,000 m2 warehouse in Rathcoole on the Kildare Dublin border.  It will house 9,000 different product lines and enable quicker shipping. 

Speaking to Joe this morning was Marsha Smith, Country Deputy Retail Manager for IKEA Ireland.
