I bet IKEA must be big over there? There used to be a store name Stork from Sweden that sold knock down furniture similar to IKEA. Are there more similar stores there?
Are you talking about STOR? (with the "/" across the O.) That was an American business out of the City of Industry that had several stores in Industry, Tustin, Torrance, and were sued by Ikea shortly after they opened. Suit settled and Ikea acquired them in 1992. I went to STOR several times in the late 80's and when Ikea arrived, readily noticed the similarity.
