Experts are comparing the arrival of the leading International furniture brand, Ikea, in Japan to that of US Commodore Matthew Perry's 'black ships' in 1853 when the 200 year old isolation of the country ended.
However, it is also viewed by some as an opportunity to spread out and make their presence known to the world.
Ikea opened its first directly operated store in Funabashi, Chiba Prefecture, just east of Tokyo, covering a floor space of 40,000 square meters.
Swedish furniture house, Ikea offers wide range of styles and home furnishings and boasts reasonable prices.
