We look at every available piece of data - including local cases, near and long‑term trends, and guidance from national and local health officials. “Our commitment is to only move forward with a reopening once we’re confident we can safely return to serving customers from our stores. We take this step with an abundance of caution as we closely monitor the situation and we look forward to having our teams and customers back as soon as possible.”Īpple outlined this possibility when it published its relaunch strategy back on May 17, 2020, where Deirdre O’Brien stated: “Due to current COVID-19 conditions in some of the communities we serve, we are temporarily closing stores in these areas. These closures affect stores in four US states & effective tomorrow, June 20, 2020. Pennsylvania (Storefront Service & Sales):Īpple announced that it would be closing 11 previously reopened retail locations due to spikes in COVID cases in those particular jurisdictions. New Hampshire (In-Store Service & Sales): Massachusetts (In-Store Service & Sales): The Fashion Mall at Keystone, Indianapolis We are committed to reopening our stores in a very thoughtful manner with the health and safety of our customers and teams as our top priority, and we look forward to seeing our customers again soon.” Customers can also visit for support by phone or chat. As hours and services vary by location, we encourage everyone to check their local store webpage for more information. All stores continue to practice additional steps for the health of employees and customers, including temperature checks, face coverings and social distancing.

“This week we’ll return to serving customers in many more US locations including by appointment in New York City, where we’re proud to stand beside New Yorkers as they emerge from this incredibly difficult time. Seventy-one more retail stores are reopening in the USA, in addition to four more stores in Canada, including the first stores to open in the provinces of Ontario & Quebec. In addition to the two stores in Pittsburgh that Apple announced yesterday, Today, Apple announced a massive wave of new reopenings across the United States & Canada occurring across this week. Stores in Scotland and Wales will remain closed. In total, 33 retail locations will be reopened. Location 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England & 🇬🇧 Northern IrelandĪpple announced the reopening of all of its retail stores in England, in addition to one retail location in Northern Ireland on June 15, 2020. One localized outbreak, in Leicester, would also result in a temporary closure of a store in the surrounding area. As waves of Covid-19 infections spread across the US, Apple announced that nearly 50 previously opened stores would temporarily close. However, as June wore on, it became clear that reopening would not be a 1-way street. Apple also significantly increased the number of stores reopening across the United States and began opening up a majority of its retail locations across the UK. This month saw Apple reopen all their retail locations in Thailand, Belgium, Spain, UAE, France, Turkey, Netherlands, & Singapore, and finish reopening locations across Japan, Italy, Canada, & Sweden.
