Jysk A/S (Danish: [ˈjysk] YUHSK) is a Danish retail chain, selling household goods such as mattresses, furniture, and interior décor. Jysk is the largest Danish retailer operating internationally with over 3,100 stores in 51 countries.[1] Jysk (meaning "Jutlandic") was founded by Lars Larsen, who opened the first store on Silkeborgvej in the Danish city of Aarhus in April 1979.[2] It is owned by the founder Lars Larsen's family through the holding company Lars Larsen Group which also owns wholly or partly the furniture chains ILVA, IDÉmøbler, IDdesign, Bolia.com, and Sengespecialisten.[3] The logo displays a goose, which has a historical thread to the brand.[4] Due to the Scandinavian design for its products, it is also called the Danish IKEA in a small format.[5]
