Ingka Group

Annual Summary and Sustainability Report FY25

Driven by the IKEA vision to create a better everyday life for the many people, Ingka Group brings the IKEA brand to millions of homes. We aim to have a positive impact on people and planet through our business and here we summarise our progress in FY25.

Positive impact for people and planet

Home is the most important place in the world, and we are in the business of supporting people to have a better life at home. Driven by a strong vision of creating a better everyday life for the many people, our focus is to make home furnishing more accessible, affordable and sustainable.

Since FY16, we have reduced emissions from our own operations by 70.6%, supported by EUR 4.3 billion invested or committed to invest in wind and solar farms. At the end of FY25, 60.1% of our retail home deliveries were made by zero-emission vehicles, and we are growing our circular services for customers. We remain committed to the Paris Agreement 1.5°C pathway and we are well on our way to delivering on our ambition to halve our emissions by 2030 (against our FY16 baseline) and reach net zero by 2050 at the latest.

IKEA is for and by the many people. We see inclusion as our responsibility and a business opportunity. As a company we are committed to giving everyone the opportunity to work, belong, and thrive. We continued to implement our Responsible Wage Practices framework and our systematic approach to closing the gender equal pay gap and to develop our approach to equality, diversity and inclusion. We’re pleased to share that we maintained gender balance across the company.

We are excited about the future and we look forward to bringing IKEA to more people while creating a positive impact for people and planet.

What do we focus on?

Our reporting focuses on the sustainability topics that matter most for our business, our stakeholders, society and the planet. We regularly conduct a double materiality assessment to identify our material topics, to help us focus our sustainability and people strategy, track progress and communicate performance

We updated our reporting this year, inspired by the European Sustainability Reporting Standards, changing the structure and contents to focus even more on what matters most. Our reporting is now structured around three key themes – environment, social and governance.
