93,000-square-foot IKEA Webster expands the retailer’s footprint in Texas
IKEA U.S. has expanded its retail presence in Texas with the opening of IKEA Webster on 26 June, marking the company’s 10th store in the state and its third Texas location to open in 2026.
Located at The Center at Baybrook, just off the Gulf Freeway (I-45), the new store is designed to serve customers in Webster, Clear Lake, Friendswood and surrounding communities by offering a wider range of home furnishing solutions closer to where they live.
According to IKEA U.S., the 93,000-square-foot store features more than 7,000 products, including 4,800 items available for immediate takeaway. Customers can explore fully furnished room settings designed around local lifestyles and access design consultation services for different areas of the home.
The store also includes a Swedish food area offering menu items such as meatballs, plant balls, hot dogs and veggie dogs. An As-is Department has been incorporated to offer discounted, gently used products, supporting more affordable and sustainable furnishing options.
Commenting on the opening, Rob Olson, Interim CEO of IKEA U.S., said:
“We are proud to open our 10th store in the state of Texas as we continue to expand across the region. Ikea Webster marks our third store opening in Texas this year and reflects our investment in making the Ikea experience more affordable, accessible and convenient, while inspiring customers to design their dream space.”
Fredrik Rabe, Market Manager, IKEA Houston, added:
“We’re looking forward to welcoming customers to our second store in the Houston metro area. Ikea Webster reflects our continued investment in the region, and we’re excited to celebrate this milestone with the community at our grand opening.”
The Webster location is part of IKEA’s broader expansion strategy in Texas, which also includes five Plan and Order Points with Pickup opened last year within selected Best Buy stores to extend home planning services across the state.
