Launching the flagship Apple Store format will allow the company to strengthen its position in the Southeast Asian market.
Apple is preparing to open its first flagship store in Malaysia. The company has begun recruiting in the new market.
It is reported that Apple has published a large number of vacancies, indicating plans to open a retail store in the country soon. In particular, managers, technicians, support staff, and operations specialists are invited to work. The vacancies published on Apple’s website note that specialists are invited to work in Apple’s own stores, not third-party outlets already operating in the country.
Launching the flagship Apple Store format will allow the company to strengthen its position in the Southeast Asian market. Apple already operates in Thailand and Singapore. In addition, shortly, the company plans to enter the Indian market by opening a flagship store in Mumbai.
It is assumed that the location for the Apple Store will be chosen in one of the top locations in Kuala Lumpur, a city with a population of 2 million people. According to other reports, Apple is also interested in opening its store in Singapore.
