#1,660 - New Ikea store in San Fran will have "nonstop security" as Whole Foods nearby shuts down over crime and safety issues

Downtown San Francisco’s new Ikea furniture store will have round-the-clock security, the retail company announced Monday. 

It comes a week after a Downtown Whole Foods store announced its abrupt closure due to staff safety concerns. 

“The safety of our co-workers and customers is always the highest priority for Ikea. Ikea San Francisco, which will be part of a new meeting place from Ingka Centres on Market Street, will be staffed with a security team at all times,” an Ikea spokesperson said in an email.

The new store on Market Street could open as early as May in the building previously known as the 6x6 Mall, although the company now says it will open in the coming months. Prior information stated the store would be open by the end of 2023.
