To achieve the growth of 50 stores by 2013, IKEA should not stray too far from its original
product strategy plan. If too much is altered, misunderstandings and lack of cohesion may
take place within the company. This simple product/price matrix is laid out in a way that
works for IKEA, but minute modifications can be made. Since the product matrix doesnt
specifically state what qualifies a product as a high, medium, or low price, there can be
percentages applied for the price ranges. Similarly, the styles can be broken down into
subcategories to create more specificity. Certain changes, if made, will provide the company
with comprehensive reports on which products are missing in accordance with its
competitors.
