Apple CEO Tim Cook has arrived in Delhi for the opening of the company’s latest store in Saket. Cook was greeted by enthusiastic Apple fans and members of the Indian media upon his arrival at the airport.
The new store in Saket is part of Apple’s ongoing expansion plans in India. The country is seen as a key growth market for the tech giant, with a large and rapidly growing consumer base.
Cook is expected to attend the opening ceremony of the store, which will feature a range of Apple products including iPhones, iPads, Macs, and Apple Watches. The store is also expected to offer a range of services, including customer support and workshops.
The Saket store is Apple’s third retail outlet in India, following the opening of stores in Mumbai and Bengaluru last year. The company has plans to open more stores in the country in the coming years.
The move is part of Apple’s broader strategy to expand its presence in emerging markets, particularly in Asia. The company has faced stiff competition from rivals such as Samsung and Xiaomi in the region, but remains optimistic about its prospects in India.
Cook has previously expressed his admiration for India and its culture, and has stated that he sees the country as an important market for Apple. The company has been investing heavily in the country, both in terms of expanding its retail presence and in developing local manufacturing capabilities.
The opening of the Saket store is expected to be a major event, with hundreds of Apple fans expected to attend. It is also likely to generate significant media attention, as Cook’s visit to India is seen as a significant milestone in the company’s efforts to expand its presence in the country.
