Recently, some netizens said that taking photos in the locker area of IKEA in Shanghai was stopped by security guards. Recently, many online celebrities went to IKEA's locker area to punch in and take photos. The reason why they take photos here is mainly to take photos of the atmosphere of American universities. There are several reasons why IKEA doesn't let everyone take pictures.
First of all, the security guard at IKEA said that many customers who take pictures will affect other consumers' shopping. It is understood that many customers wear exposed clothes, which will affect the image of IKEA and have some bad effects on other consumers, so taking pictures is not very civilized. Some customers will block the door when they take things. Everyone is a consumer, so it will cause interference. And customers will lose their passwords when they open cabinets. If someone takes a photo or takes a selfie, it may cause the storage to be stolen. Another situation is that they take pictures for a long time and always gather in one place, which especially affects others. If taking pictures won't affect other consumers, that's another matter.
Secondly, because of the recent epidemic prevention and control, management will be stricter. It is understood that these people will take off their masks when taking pictures. According to the epidemic prevention and control policy, if customers are found to have taken off their masks while taking pictures, the security guards will come forward to stop them and cannot sit idly by. At present, the management of IKEA is still relatively strict, so every link is controlled by security guards. On the other hand, it is really inappropriate to take photos and take off masks. After all, the epidemic is unstable now, so we should not gather, let alone take off our masks. I understand this.
These are some reasons why IKEA forbids taking pictures.
