This weekend will mark the third time Apple has opened three stores in as many weeks. That’s nine new stores in only three weeks — quite an expansion and, you guessed it, almost a third of the 30 new Apple Stores the company plans to open this quarter.
The new stores opening this weekend are all international ones. The three stores all open this Saturday, September 3. The first is the Campania store in Naples, Italy. It’s doors open at 10AM and will be the first of Apple’s seven Italian stores to open south of Rome. Then at 9:30 AM in Augsburg, Germany the City-Galerie store opens. The City-Galerie store will be Apple’s sixth in Germany. Finally at 9:30 AM the Mapleview Centre Apple store will open in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. Mapleview will be Apple’s 21st Canadian Store.
Last week Apple opened stores in Arkansas and North Carolina in the US and in Sénart in France.
