How we work with our suppliers

To us, our suppliers and service providers are some of our most important partners for development. Together we grow and expand our businesses and explore new ways to do it in a socially and environmentally responsible way.

We share the responsibility to make sure that the unique IKEA range is produced at the right time, right volume, right quality, and at a low cost to an ever-expanding customer base. Thanks to our ambitious growth plans, we are always on the look-out for new partners that share our values and our ambitions to become people and planet positive.

Our supplier sustainability requirements

Being responsible for a total value chain gives IKEA a unique opportunity to create a positive impact on people, society and the planet. IWAY, our supplier code of conduct, was created to ensure better environmental, social and working conditions, as well as stronger animal welfare practices. IWAY is mandatory for all IKEA suppliers and service providers.
