I suppose it is because 2 facts: 1- Bigger than 100% import duties on some of those countries. 2- Very small middle class, who are the buyers of IKEA. I have lived in Brazil. Only two classes there: The ultra wealthy and the poor. I was ultra wealthy there, but live is worth nothing there. Probably Chile(too far), and in the future Colombia are the only places they could expand.
