Apple’s first retail store in BKC is one of its most sustainable stores yet, offering special, with a team of more than 100 people.

Apple Specialists will be available to help customers learn about Apple products, as well as different ways to pay and how to switch to iOS from Windows or Android.

Apple BKC will offer a special Today at Apple series, “Mumbai Rising,” running through the summer.

With a dedicated solar array and zero reliance on fossil fuels for store operations, Apple BKC is one of the most energy-efficient Apple Store locations in the world.

A triangular handcrafted timber ceiling extends beyond the glass façade to the underside of the exterior canopy, reflecting the unique geometry of the store.

Each tile is made from 408 pieces of timber, forming 31 modules per tile with a total of 1,000 tiles that make up the ceiling.

Upon entering the store, customers are greeted by two stone walls sourced from Rajasthan and a 14-meter-long stainless steel staircase connecting the ground level and the cantilevered mezzanine.

The first two Apple retail flagship stores in India are opening this week, on 18 and 20 April, respectively. The two new locations for the Apple store in India are Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) in Mumbai, which will open for the public on 18 April, and Saket in Delhi, on 20 April. These new retail stores in India mark a significant expansion of Apple and its products in the country. Until now, the company used to sell through exclusive Apple Premium Reseller stores but with the flagship stores, Apple is trying to provide extraordinary service and experiences to its customers in the country.

Apple CEO Tim Cook echoed the same thought recently. He said, “At Apple, our mission is to enrich lives and empower people around the world. India has such a beautiful culture and an incredible energy, and we’re excited to build on our long-standing history — supporting our customers, investing in local communities, and working together to build a better future with innovations that serve humanity.”

Customisation options will also be available to the users, and they will get help in setting up devices and migrating from Windows or Android to the Apple ecosystem. Not just that, Apple users can get access to programmes like ‘Today at Apple’ by signing up for this at the stores.

Apple also recently launched the new Apple Music Classical app designed specifically for classical music lovers.
