Hanoi (VNA) - Apple announced on May 12 that it will open its first online store in Vietnam on May 18 in a bid to boost operations in emerging markets.
The online store will have a team of experts who are ready to share expertise in Vietnamese to support customers in need.
Online shops often precede the opening of retail stores. Apple already sells products in Vietnam via licensed vendors.
Deirdre O'Brien, Apple's senior vice president of retail, said the company is proud to be expanding in Vietnam.
In 2022, Vietnam’s import of CBU (completely built units) phones reached a turnover of 3.5 billion USD, up 10.5% compared to 2021, accounting for 16.6% of the import turnover of phones and components.
Apple, Samsung, Oppo, and Xiaomi phones were the most favoured brands, accounting for 93.4%. iPhone imports saw the most significant growth rising 46% to 1.16 billion USD./.
