Apple Inc.’s is devoted to establish almost 40 retail stores in the Chinese market. The company has eyed October 2016 as the potential month to achieve its target. The company has now established its 33rd outlet now in Qingdao. Apple Insider, which is considered to be a credible source for Apple related news, has confirmed that the launch of the store is scheduled for January 31st. This will be the fifth store opened by the company in a time span of a month which is in compliance with their expansion plans.
It now looks like that the tech giant is solely devoted by the potential of China due to its strong consumer market and growth. This will help the company to grow in the long run. The Apple iPhone giant has been successful in opening stores in the Chinese market in cities like Hong Kong, Dalian, Nanjing, Chengdu, Beijing, along with the “Green City of Nanning” so far.
The recent store by Apple will now be located in Qingdao’s MixC Mall that is located at 6A Shandong Road, of the Shinan District that will have a massive showroom. As per the speculation, the new store will be having several tutorials right after its opening. The idea behind these tutorials is to equip the users about how to use the Apple products.
The move certainly gives birth to curiosity about the look of the upcoming Apple Store along with when it will actually become operational. The reason why Apple has narrowed its focus to China is because it considers the region to be the best market for the company in the times to come. Moreover, it has also assisted the company in adopting an innovative architectural hierarchy at all the company’s stores in the region.
This has actually become possible because of Jony Ive along with Angela Ahrendts who is the chief retail officer at the tech giant; both these individuals are trying their best to ensure that all Apple Stores remain consistent and have the same persona like all other Apple Stores all over the globe. This will help them to be a class apart from all international and local competitors.
All the stores that are currently being launched in China have been aided with tools that are found in all Apple Stores. This includes Genius Bars, JointVentures, and workshop along with other services present at their retail store. Considering the pace with which new Apple Stores are being established in the Chinese market, it now seems that the tech behemoth will become successful in meeting its goal of having 40 stores in the region before October arrives.
Hence in a nutshell, AAPL is playing quite smart by coming up with more stores in the Chinese market as the region has immense growth potential that will assist them in churning revenues in the long run. Moreover, Apple is also trying its best to make a mark in India considering it to be an emerging market with immense potential of growth.
