Abstract:
Introduction

Verdict Research: Following the much anticipated opening of its first UK store in Thurrock, near London, ILVA has widely being touted as the biggest development in the UK furniture sector since the arrival of IKEA nineteen years ago. But what are the potential ramifications for competitors in the sector?

Scope
  • The proposition section of the report includes analysis from store visits and an interview with ILVA chief executive Martin Toogood.
  • Verdict's own in-house analysis and extensive proprietary database, alongside a rigorous financial modelling process is used to forecast future sales.
Highlights

Provided the Danish furniture retailer's formula delivers on all its promises and proves to be a success in the marketplace under present market conditions ILVA could become the fifth largest furniture retailer in the UK by 2011.

ILVA could deliver sales densities of more than twice the sector average within the next five years to be on a par with IKEA and DFS.

The key strengths of ILVA's proposition pick up on the areas where most furniture retailers have only made limited progress in. These are inspirational store environments with an emphasis on product rather than price; a strong emphasis on service; and an extensive offer targeted across all spectrums of the underserved middle market.

Reasons to Purchase
  • Quantify the scale of the potential threat that ILVA poses to existing furniture retailers in the UK.
  • Obtain a solid understanding of the operations and proposition of the latest entrant into the furniture market.
  • Benchmark key aspects of ILVA's existing proposition to benchmark against improvements in leading furniture retailers.
