====Small sized stores==== In Hong Kong, where shop space is limited and costly, IKEA has opened 4 stores, all in multi-storey commercial buildings. They are smaller than other IKEA stores but large by Hong Kong standards. In addition to tailoring store sizes for specific countries, IKEA alters the sizes of products to accommodate cultural differences.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.fastcompany.com/90215773/how-ikea-quietly-tweaks-its-design-around-the-world|title=How Ikea quietly tweaks its design around the world|last=Schwab|first=Katharine|date=10 August 2018|website=Fast Company|access-date=29 October 2019|archive-date=29 October 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191029192321/https://www.fastcompany.com/90215773/how-ikea-quietly-tweaks-its-design-around-the-world|url-status=live}}</ref> In 2015, IKEA announced it would attempt smaller store design at locations in Canada.
