Apple fans in Mumbai are in for a treat with the upcoming opening of the new Apple BKC store. Members of the media were recently invited to a preview of the store before its official opening on April 18th, when Apple CEO Tim Cook will cut the ribbon. Here’s a sneak peek into what we can expect from the latest Apple Store in India.
Impressive Design and Architecture
The Apple BKC store boasts a massive glass facade, making it stand out from the other buildings in the area. As you walk in, you’ll notice several desks arranged in a parallel row, giving it a modern and sleek look. The high ceiling and pillars create an open space, providing a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for customers.
The first floor of the store houses the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 line, along with other Apple products and accessories. There’s a dedicated section for HomePod and Apple TV+. The store also features a section on the first floor where customers can purchase Macs and other accessories.
Green and Sustainable
Apple has always been committed to reducing its carbon footprint, and the new BKC store is no exception. The store is one of the world’s most energy-efficient Apple Stores, according to the tech giant. The store will operate on 100% environmentally friendly power, and there will be no use of fossil fuels.
The store will have its own solar array, which will generate clean energy to power the store’s operations. The organization claims that the BKC store is functionally carbon nonpartisan, making it an eco-friendly addition to Mumbai’s landscape.
Unique Ceiling Design
The store’s ceiling is made of wood with a triangular handcrafted texture, giving it a unique and striking appearance. Each tile is made up of 408 pieces of wood, forming 31 modules for every tile. There are 1,000 tiles in total that make up the roof, creating a visually stunning effect.
Multilingual and Diverse Staff
Over 100 people will work at the Apple BKC store, and all of them are fluent in more than 20 languages. This is a reflection of Mumbai’s diverse and multicultural population. Customers who speak different languages can expect to receive exceptional service from staff who understand their needs and preferences.
Conclusion
The Apple BKC store is an impressive addition to Mumbai’s shopping landscape. With its energy-efficient and sustainable design, unique ceiling, and diverse staff, it promises to offer a one-of-a-kind shopping experience for Apple fans in the city. We can’t wait to see the store open its doors on April 18th and welcome customers from all over Mumbai.
