Apple to reopen 100 stores in the U.S. this week
Apple plans to reopen 100 reopen stores this week as states begin to lift stay-at-home orders, though it will impose social-distancing requirements including mandatory face masks for workers and customers.
"This week we'll return to serving customers in many U.S locations," the company said Tuesday in a statement. "For customer safety and convenience, most stores will offer curbside or storefront service only, where we provide online order pick-up and Genius Bar appointments."
Two weeks ago, the company reopened a handful of stores in Idaho and Alabama.
Apple is implementing health measures as it reopens stores, including facial coverings, temperature checks for customers and limiting the number of visitors who enter a store. That could cause service delays, according to the company.
Apple said some of its reopened stores will welcome walk-in customers. The technology giant operates more than 250 stores across the U.S., all of which were shuttered in mid-March. Apple said earlier this month its retail division is monitoring local health conditions and government guidance in determining which stores to open.
Stores in Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, Texas and Pennsylvania will reopen. Twelve of the stores – including one in New York, five in Michigan and six in California — will offer curbside service only. Stores in Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Miami, St. Louis and San Francisco will accept in-store customers.
The coronavirus pandemic has hurt Apple's profits this year and disrupted its supply chain, with Foxconn, its vendor that manufactures iPhones in China, temporarily shuttered in February. The factories have since reopened, but the closure is expected to delay the fall release of Apple's next iPhone line.
Apple last month reported that profits for its latest quarter fell 2% from a year ago, while iPhone sales slid 7%. Revenues grew slightly, driven by Apple's growing services business.
Apple joins a growing list of major retailers reopening their stores in recent weeks, including Best Buy, GameStop, Macy's, T-Mobile and Urban Outfitters.
