I don't see anything wrong sa pag open nila. May pinasok na silang investment, tapos na contruction ng store, malamang on the way na mga stocks, and most probably, hired na mga employees, so mas malugi sila if hindi nila ituloy pag open or push back pa nila opening date.

Besides, with our new way of life of staying more at home, especially kids and oldies, and the new norm of work and study at home, there's no better time to open a new furniture store.

Maraming papatayin na local furniture shops yan

Is there an opening date already for Ikea? It is still under construction probably 1 to 2yrs time.

Yeah. Knowing SM, mahal yan sigurado. Eventually gagayahin lang din naman ng mga local manufacturers yung ibang designs.

Supposed to be this year daw opening, but because of the pandemic, sa 2021 na mag open.

from the article:

A collapse in demand for imports came after the Southeast Asian country went through one of the world’s longest and strictest lockdowns to contain the coronavirus.

in my words THE MOST CRIPPLING LOCKDOWN IN THE WORLD

Luggage business must really suck when no one is travelling...

Tripologie travel gear concept store in Eastwood Mall has recently extended its warehouse sale until Sept. 13, 2020, with up to 80% off on bags and luggage brands like Wenger, Thule, Elle, Skechers and National Geographic. Visits will be made by appointment only, with a limited number of people on-site.
