I wonder what IKEA in the dr thinks of the new immigration laws ? Less snowbirds buying IKEA furniture.
Oh! They do care about them! They would never stop paying importance to that 0.01% of their client base!

especially when it is they who do the spending, while the bulk of the remainder does the window shopping, and buys an ash tray and a paperweight.

I recently ordered some items from IKEA for an expat who did not speak Spanish. I eventually ordered them online using their chat function as the telephone service did not work for some reason. You can see my experience here.

When I spoke to Anabel she said nearly half of the people who tried to chat did not speak Spanish and that is why she has to learn English. Nearly half sounds a little more than 0.01% if my maths is not letting me down.
And interestingly, the man who has the IKEA franchise here, (it is a franchise operation), Anders Alm has a house in Punta Cana, so maybe that is why they are opening there, LOL!
Matilda.
0.01%?...Oh, you have a flair for the dramatic, sir. Of course you have documentation to support that number that you've so deftly pulled out of the beautiful blue sky.

I doubt the foreign resident/tourist market for IKEA is just 0.01% of their sales. Maybe not 50% either. But in Punta Cana surely it would be at least 50%.
The ninth largest economy in Latin America (DR) gets the first IKEA. All reportable statistics just dont add up to such a move, however tourism and foreign investment are a significant part of the economy, yet as quoted by Pichardo, only equates to .01%. Hmmm!
Keep dreaming!
LOL!!!
ok, so you divided it by the square root of the percentage of the population with Toyota Prados.
Whatever it is it puts the DR ahead of all Latin America in terms of purchasing furniture-non electric that is-still have not solved that problem
that is not an accurate correlation. maybe the analysis shows that Dominicans are more likely to buy this type of furniture. another type of furniture manufacturer , at a different retail price point, might have gone to somewhere else, instead.
