India's capital Delhi is gearing up for its first official Apple Store launch on April 20 (Thursday) amid the tech giant's big retail push in the country. The Apple Store in Delhi was previewed on Wednesday, similar to the one in Mumbai, a day ahead of the inauguration. While Apple BKC is inspired by the iconic Kaali Peeli taxi art unique to Mumbai, Apple Saket, according to the initial teaser seems to be inspired by Delhi’s heritage gates.
Apple Saket is likely to be inaugurated by CEO Tim Cook on Thursday, April 20 at 10am.
Apple Saket will welcome customers through a uniquely designed curved storefront with white oak tables displaying Apple’s products and accessories, as well as a feature wall manufactured locally in the country. The store features a dedicated Apple Pickup station which makes it easier for customers to order online and collect their devices in-store at a convenient time.
Seventy Apple team members will be part of the Apple Saket store who come from a combined 18 states in India and collectively speak more than 15 local languages. Like all Apple facilities, Apple Saket and Apple’s operations in India run on 100 per cent renewable energy and are carbon neutral.
