Lately it seems that the work of the company Apple in the area of stores, it focuses less on expansion and more on the management of existing premises.
According to Facades app developer Michael Steeber, the number of new branded Apple stores suggests this year could be "solid" in that regard, with five new stores introduced in its first eight months, compared to just six in all of 2022 and eight in 2021. The list for 2023 includes a store in South Korea's Gangnam, new stores in India and the UK's Battersea Power Station in London.
One of the new store opening charts shows a significant reduction from the 40 store openings per year in 2012 and the company's total of 20 store openings Apple annually until 2016. Pro In 2017 and beyond, these numbers are effectively halved. Steeber's second chart includes cases where stores move or remodel each year, in addition to cases where new stores are opened. It is this second chart that suggests that the company Apple focuses more on store remodels and relocations later, especially since 2016. From 2020 and beyond, store activity appears to decrease further, with fewer than 14 new stores opening each year. In contrast, approximately 2019 stores were opened in 30, while 2012 were opened in 63. “Once some markets reach store saturation, expansion gives way to maintenance. There are currently more stores to maintain Apple Store than at any time in history, and about half of them are at least ten years old,” states Steeber, whose Facades application focuses precisely on information about Apple Storech. Apple according to Steeber, he is increasingly preferring to reinvest in existing stores instead of opening new branches. These reinvestments range from improvements to bathroom facilities and storage areas to more visible changes such as new flooring and mechanical upgrades.
