Apple retail outlets to come up in Bengaluru and Pune soon
San Francisco/New Delhi: As Apple is preparing to expand its retail presence in India, the company's CEO Tim Cook has officially announced opening of two more official retail outlets in Bengaluru's Hebbal and Pune's Koregaon Park and said the US tech giant was "thrilled" to continue to bring the best of its technology to customers across India at these two new outlets.
Taking to his official social media X account on Thursday, the Apple CEO said: "Say hello to Apple Hebbal in Bengaluru and Apple Koregaon Park in Pune! We are thrilled to continue to bring the best of Apple to customers across India at these two new stores."
The first of these new stores, Apple Hebbal, was scheduled to open its doors in Bengaluru on September 2, 2025. Opening at the Phoenix Mall of Asia, the store will be the third official Apple Store in the country, following the launches of Apple Bandra-Kurla Complex in Mumbai and Apple Saket in Delhi.
The company has teased the Bengaluru opening with a unique barricade featuring vibrant peacock feathers, making a tribute to India's national bird. The store is expected to offer the full range of Apple products like iPhones, Macs, AirPods, iPads and accessories, along with expert support and the popular "Today at Apple" sessions.
Following Bengaluru, Apple was also preparing to launch its fourth store in Pune. The Pune outlet is reportedly located at the KOPA Mall in Koregaon Park and was also expected to open in early September.
This new store will not only be a substantial 10,000 sq ft flagship outlet but also marks the first Apple Store in the state of Maharashtra outside of Mumbai.
Currently, Apple runs two official retail outlets in India -- one located in Mumbai and the other in New Delhi.
However, additional outlets were anticipated to be opened soon.
This information was disclosed by Tim Cook during the company's earnings call, where he indicated that more retail locations are set to be established in India before the end of 2025.
