IKEA has been granted planning permission for an 86,100 sq ft extension to its Warrington store in Cheshire.
IKEA has also been given the green light on proposals for a 1,000-space decked car park next to the store.
The extension was determined within three months of submitting the planning application.
Paul Jacobs, real estate manager for IKEA, said: “This is an important decision for the Warrington store, allowing us to improve the service we offer customers through more stock on site and better availability for pick up close to the point of sale. It will also ease congestion in the store during the peak trading periods.”
Indigo Planning advised on planning.
