REGO PARK, QUEENS — IKEA is coming to Queens. The Swedish furniture giant will open a 115,000-square-foot store in the Rego Center shopping mall in summer 2020, the company announced Tuesday.

The Rego Park store will be IKEA's third location in New York City and its first in Queens. It will include thousands of IKEA products for purchase and takeaway, home delivery, assembly and installation — plus a brand-new food offering.

"With a growing community of more than 900,000 households, Queens was a natural next destination for IKEA in New York City" Leontyne Green Sykes, chief operating officer of IKEA Retail U.S., said in a statement.

IKEA chose to set up shop in the Rego Center to make the store accessible to Queens residents using public transportation, according to Sykes. The mall, located at Queens Boulevard and Junction Boulevard, is served by the E, M and R subway lines.

Manhattan's first IKEA store opened in April on the Upper East Side.
