Apple China is set to open a new retail store in the Chinese city of Suzhou.
Roughly coinciding with the imminent launch of the new iPhone and Apple Watch models, Apple’s 505th retail outlet will open beneath the city’s tallest building, Gate to the East, adjacent to Suzhou’s largest shopping centre Suzhou Center Mall.
It is the second new location for Apple in greater China this year since opening in Macau a few months back.
Mystery surrounding the developing store under construction was cleared when its facade was recently revealed to bear the chromed Apple logo.
Suzhou, along with Shanghai, was recently announced as a target location for new Apple R&D facilities.
