Apple says the new store is not only set to be the newest venue as part of Apple’s expansion into China, but also the largest.
Beijing Youth Daily interviewed Apple's senior vice-president of retail Ron Johnson. In the interview, Johnson confirmed that the new Shanghai Apple store would open around the summer.
We’re tempted to agree with Shanghaiist and ask, “Does Shanghai really need three Apple Stores?” But, judging by the wait time at the two current Genius Bars (already some of the world's largest in their own right), we’d say the answer to that is a resounding “Yes.”
According to MIC Gadget, the store will be five levels, containing mainly retail space, with offices on the upper floors.
China Realtime Report notes that Chinese Apple Stores are big business for the company, averaging 40,000 visitors per day -- that's more than four times the traffic of Apple's U.S. stores.
Apple's China stores brought in a reported US$2.6 billion last quarter. The best numbers from any of their stores worldwide.
Looks like come summer, Apple will be one step closer to its goal of 25 China Apple stores by the end
