The Mumbai store – coming up over 22,000 square feet in Reliance Industries’ premium Jio World Drive mall – will be a retail landmark, similar to Apple’s outlets in Los Angeles, New York, Beijing, Milan and Singapore, [two industry executives aware of its plans] said.
The Delhi store in Select Citywalk mall in Saket will be spread over 10,000 sq ft and that is also lined up for launch in April-June, possibly just a few days after the Mumbai opening, one of them said.
“Fitouts are completed for both the stores,” the person said. “In fact, the fitout was completed for the Delhi store ahead of the Mumbai one.”
“But since Mumbai will be the flagship Apple Store in India, it will open first next month. The Delhi one will open soon after,” said the industry executive.
