IKEA is making its largest-ever investment in new American stores, betting on strong U.S. demand for its flat-pack furniture.

Ingka Holding BV, the biggest owner and operator of IKEA stores, said Thursday it would spend 2 billion euros, the equivalent of $2.19 billion, opening 17 new U.S. locations over the next three years. The investment will also be used to bolster its fulfillment network to improve its delivery services, the company said.
