IKEA - Flatpack furniture packaging

IKEA packaging: The photographed cardboard shows standard IKEA labeling mentioning “Inter IKEA Systems B.V.” and “IKEA of Sweden AB,” indicating this is packaging for an IKEA home‑furnishing product (a flatpack/assembly product).

IKEA origin and brand structure:

• IKEA was founded in Sweden and is widely recognised as a Swedish home‑furnishing brand. (inter.ikea.com)

• Inter IKEA Systems B.V. is the worldwide franchisor and the company that owns and manages the IKEA Concept and trademarks; it is registered and operates from the Netherlands (Delft). (lei.bloomberg.com)

• The ultimate legal owner of the Inter IKEA Group holding structure is a foundation-level entity (Inter IKEA Foundation), registered in Liechtenstein, which holds Inter IKEA Holding and related ownership structures. (en.wikipedia.org)

Manufacturing and retail structure:

• IKEA sources and manufactures products in many countries through a global supplier and production network; as a result, individual items and packaging are typically produced in multiple countries rather than a single origin. (inter.ikea.com)

• Retail operations are run under a franchise model: Inter IKEA Systems B.V. sets the concept and collects franchise fees while franchisees (the largest being Ingka Group) operate most of the retail stores and local distribution. (ingka.com)

Summary:

This image shows generic IKEA packaging and branding (Inter IKEA Systems B.V. / IKEA of Sweden AB). Because the photo only displays the box branding and no product model or barcode, the safest classification is a generic IKEA flatpack furniture packaging box. Manufacturing is not tied to a single country for most IKEA products; ownership of the IKEA concept and trademarks sits with the Inter IKEA corporate/foundation group, while retail is mostly operated by the Ingka Group.
