“Every detail was created with the unique needs of Scarborough residents in mind, from the proximity to public transportation and delivery and assembly options, to the wide product range curated specifically to help them with solutions to live a better everyday life at home,” Odette Walker, Market Manager at IKEA Scarborough Town Centre, adds.
