Apple to Open Sixth Retail Store in India: Apple Borivali Launching Feb 26

The CSR Journal Magazine

Apple has announced the opening of its sixth retail store in India, named Apple Borivali, which is set to welcome visitors on February 26. This new location marks the second Apple Store in Mumbai, following the recent opening of Apple BKC. With this launch, Apple continues to expand its brick-and-mortar presence in the Indian market.

Chronology of Store Openings

The company’s retail expansion began in 2023, when it inaugurated two stores almost simultaneously: one in Mumbai, known as Apple BKC, and another in New Delhi, named Apple Saket. Following these openings, Apple introduced three more stores in 2025: Apple Hebbal in Bengaluru, Apple Koregaon Park in Pune, and Apple Noida in the National Capital Region.

The company is also reportedly preparing to unveil a seventh store, which is expected to be located in Hyderabad, although this has yet to be officially confirmed.

Job Openings Indicate Further Expansion

While Apple has not publicly confirmed the details of the upcoming Hyderabad store, the company has been actively recruiting for various positions related to this new location. Job listings for roles such as store leader and senior manager are currently available on Apple’s official website.

Historically, Apple begins its recruitment process well in advance of new store openings, suggesting that it may be some time before this store is operational.

Successful Retail Strategy Reflects Growth

The expansion of Apple’s retail footprint, highlighted by the forthcoming Borivali store, illustrates the company’s successful strategy in the Indian market. Apple views its retail locations not merely as sales venues but as cultural hubs where customers can engage with products and ideas. The performance of these stores has exceeded expectations, further validated by Apple’s CEO Tim Cook.

Statements from Apple Leadership

During a recent earnings call, Tim Cook expressed enthusiasm for Apple’s retail achievements, stating, “In retail, we continue to bring a magical experience to our customers all around the world, and we were thrilled to have our best-ever results in retail during the quarter.” Cook also mentioned the excitement surrounding the recent opening of the fifth store in India and the plans for a new Mumbai location.

Sales Growth Driven by Innovative Offerings

The combination of an engaging retail experience, trade-in programs, and a premium product lineup has contributed to sales growth in India. This momentum is evident in the quarterly financial results, which revealed record revenues not only for the December quarter but also specifically for iPhones, Macs, and iPads, as well as an all-time high in service revenue, according to Cook.

Expectations for the Future

As Apple continues to grow its retail presence in India, the anticipated opening of the Apple Borivali store signifies the company’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of Indian consumers. With its strategic approach and ongoing investments, Apple aims to solidify its market position and contribute to the country’s booming tech landscape.
