Export and Supply Process
• Russia does not have clear consumer habits.
• There have been several political risks in entering Russia.
• Exporting is an efficient and easy way to enter a foreign market.
• Therefore, IKEA has chosen to export its standardized products to Russia.

Ikea entering Russia
IKEA’s entry strategy in Russia – Adaption or Standardization?
The company made the Russian consumer buy its products as a necessity
Long-term vision gave the flexibility required from IKEA to “invent” a market gap that was to be filled by them.
Adapted to the market they entered, something that would make the company limit the distance from the pulse of the Russian reality.

Marketing Plan
The IKEA vision is to create a better everyday life for the many people.
The business idea is to offer a wide range of well-designed, functional home furnishings at prices so low that as many people as possible can afford them.
![Page 25: IKEA IN RUSSIA](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061611/557a8867d8b42ac2638b4b8e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Marketing Plan
The use of various channels outside the store to explain the full IKEA offer, like the IKEA Catalog, other important ones are IKEA websites, publications, brochures, advertising and PR.
The IKEA Catalog is the world’s most distributed annual free publication with approximately 200 million copies printed in 61 editions and 29 different languages.

Conclusion
Conclusions drawn from initial market research turned out to be very unreliable and difficult to assess.
Market structures and the behavior of consumers in Russia changed rapidly.

Recommandations
Because of the high duty, IKEA should produce in Russia.
Russia is also a very good place for purchase, because wages are low and the country has all raw materials that are needed (Wood, oil, steel) , however the company will have to figure out how to overcome the corrupt government of Russia to being to produce products within the country.
