Ingka Group, the parent company of home furnishings retailer Ikea, is launching a coworking business in the US in a partnership with NYC-based Industrious.

Ingka Centres is preparing to open its first coworking franchise—to be known as Hej!Workshop—at a vacant San Francisco mall located at 945 Market Street, according to report in CoStar. The Ikea sister company will occupy 46K SF at the 250K SF mall.
