It was in 2002. Ikea acquired a large piece of land on the ZAC Saint-Jean, in Cagnes-sur-Mer, to set up a store with an area twice that of La-Valette-du- Var. The project was ultimately not accepted. And the site now houses the Polygone Riviera shopping center. Twenty years later, and after many other unsuccessful attempts, the Swedish furniture giant will finally be able to open on the Côte d'Azur. The inauguration date for its establishment in Nice, in the Var plain, was unveiled on Thursday on the site. “The IKEA Nice Saint-Isidore store will open its doors on May 11, 2022,” announced Walter Kadnar, the brand's president in France.
On site, at the foot of the Allianz Riviera stadium, all that remains is to finish the "covered enclosure works", that is to say those which ensure the insulation of the building with regard to water and light. air, says Ikea.
The interior design of the store, which will offer 24,000 m² of retail space, will begin in January.
The roof will be covered with 3,100 green photovoltaic panels and nearly 10,000 m² of vegetated areas which will be installed from February, also indicates the brand, which praises the environmental aspect of its new store.
Solar energy should cover 40% of its needs.
"And it will use geothermal energy for its production of heating and cooling", it is also specified.
