Apple Store in Singapore likely to open in November
Apple Store in Singapore could open in November
Are you looking forward to checking out the first Apple retail store in Singapore? Well, it could be at least another three months before it happens!
According to a construction works plate on the site, the expected date of completion is stated to be 31st October 2016. Based on the Building and Construction Authority's website, the applicant (in this case, Apple) has to apply for a Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) which may take some time to be granted after the completion of building works.
As such, we can reasonably expect the Apple Store to begin operations sometime in mid to late November. Apple's plan to open a retail store in Singapore was made known after Pure Fitness sent emails to its members informing them of the closure of the branch at Knightsbridge.
