Exclude. Routine business expansion activities of a company should not be be included in the portal. Carter00000 (talk) 15:01, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Exclude. Indeed WP:ROUTINE. Also WP:UNDUE weight to Ikea when we might as well include the activities of other multinational corporations, but obviously that's way too many. _signed, Pat ^talk 02:42, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

There's a colorable argument that the first store in South America (in August of last year) merited inclusion, but not the second. —Cryptic 03:03, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Removed. I've removed the entry, per the general consensus on this talk page. Carter00000 (talk) 16:19, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
