Apple Watch begins to reach supermarkets sales and begin with Best Buy. The supermarket chain, Best Buy announced a few days ago through a press release that they will be the first vendor to offer Apple Watch on the North American customers in their stores. The company has announced the Apple Watch will be available in more than 100 stores from next August 7th and will also be available for purchase through their website.
Apple Watch availability will expand to reach 200 stores in time for the holiday shopping period, the time of year when most technology products are sold and, of course, also more Apple products. Tim Cook already announced last week that it would increase the availability of Apple Watch on stores later this year, ensuring that the device could become one of the gifts this Christmas.
However, one of the questions for us are the models that can be purchased through Best Buy and other similar sales surfaces. Apparently, the sales system will be very similar to the Apple Store, with custom test stations that the users can prove any of the 16 variants of Apple Watch, except Edition model. It will remain reserved for the Apple Store more major vendors and certain luxury.
Best Buy is one of the most important platforms for sale on the United States, so the arrival of Apple Watch will be a major growth opportunity for the company. It will give the large presence of the firm throughout the US geography. It is also expected that the clock reaches other big chains like Walmart.
Jason Bonfig, Best Buy’s senior category officer, had the following to say about the retailer’s upcoming offering of Apple Watch:
“The Apple Watch is an important addition to an emerging product category, and we know our customers want it,” said Jason Bonfig, senior category officer at Best Buy. “We are excited to bring Apple Watch to more consumers, especially with the holidays coming up.”
Apple Watch will increase the availability shops facing the Christmas shopping period
In Europe, at the moment is only possible to buy Apple Watch in the Apple Store and certain dealers, although it is expected that by the end of the year can also be found in other large stores. As we read in 9to5Mac, Apple will be interesting to see how to get hold controlled Apple Watch test experience, a test system that have looked great on the Apple Store but could be compromised when it comes to other companies sell off.
