Apple's biggest Asian store opens in city

APPLE Inc today launched its largest retail store in Asia on Nanjing Road East and the third one in Shanghai, taking the total number of retail stores to five on the Chinese mainland.

More than 300 employees greeted customers with a special-designed T-shirt at the launch of the store at 9am today.

"I started to queue for the opening at 10pm on Thursday and I wanted to be the first to see what's new in the shop," said Cui Lizhen, who was the first one to enter the brand new store.

Cui, who runs a start-up firm of his own, said he saw the alert on Apple's official website and arrived in Shanghai from the northeastern Jilin Province on Wednesday.

Apple, the maker of iPhone and iPad, previously said it planned to open 25 stores in China and Hong Kong by February 2012.
