Ikea
Ikea is one of the most popular stores that you can find in the world. This store was founded by one Swedish businessman named Ingvar Kamprad. The store was first launched in 1942. At this time the products that were sold were pens, watches, nylon stockings, jewelry, picture frames and table runners. The other products that have made Ikea famous namely their furniture line was introduced to the world at a later date.
