Apple is closing a retail store in China for the first time, marking a notable retreat in a market where the iPhone maker is striving to revive sales.
The company said on July 28 that it will shut its Parkland Mall store in the Zhongshan district of the city of Dalian on Aug 9, citing a changing landscape at the shopping complex.
The iPhone maker has 56 stores in the Greater China region, making up over 10 per cent of its footprint of more than 530 outlets globally.
