Apple Begins Hiring for First Swedish Retail Store

[MacRumors]

Even as Apple is preparing to open its first Dutch retail store in Amsterdam on March 3, the company is moving closer to expanding its international reach even further as it has updated its Swedish jobs site with new postings for the complete range of retail positions.

We noted last November that Apple had filed a business registration certificate for Apple Retail Sweden, offering support to rumors that Apple was looking to open a retail store in Stockholm.

While the new listings do not specify Stockholm as the location for the forthcoming store, Stockholm's metropolitan area is easily the largest in Sweden and with previous rumors having cited Stockholm as the focus of Apple's interest, it seems likely that this is the intended market.

So they're hiring a Swedish Chef? Muppets

 

[Metal Dice]

Dammit, we want one in Copenhagen!

Word.

Does seem quite realistic when both the Dutchmen and Swedes are getting one. Amsterdam, Stockholm and Copenhagen are all roughly the same size.

 

[Jahnsrud]

Hoping for a official Norwegian Apple Store soon, I mean: iDevices are everywhere in Norway.

 

[FakeWozniak]

I hope they hire Lisabeth Salander.

Beer Expert?

Anyone want to be the "Lagerspecialist"? I'm assuming that has a different meaning in Sweden?

Swedish meatballs a la Ikea.

haha - I think it has something to do with stock/inventory.

 

[iMarvin]

Sure sounds like a restaurant of some kind i mean, apple, lager and chef.

 

[ruvil]

yup... "inventoryspecialist" sort of. Chef = Boss/Manager/Executive etc


Also, i am sooo stoked for this. I can't wait and i will absolutely be there for the opening

Another Copenhagener here reporting envy.

Please Apple, please open a store in Denmark (Copenhagen). Did I remember to say please?

 

[DenisAuermann]

we're never getting an official apple store

 

[eltoko]

Yes, finally!!

 

[toddybody]

One more thing: The "Fyurdy hurdy herdy"

 

[Nielsenius]

The nine stores we have here in the DMV (DC, MD, VA) are definitely not enough.

 

[clibinarius]

Sry bro they have already bought their apple-building...

And of course it will be Stockholm... there is no reason to have it outside of Stockholm.

 

[parish]

I hope they hire Lisabeth Salander.

The girl with the Apple tattoo

I hope its not Stockholm. Malmö has a taller building.

So the one in Göteborg must be an Authorized Apple Reseller then?

 

[hafr]

I'm quite surprised that it has taken them this long. Anyone who has ever been to Stockholm knows just how huge Apple is there. It's like a city of hipsters with immense purchase power when it comes to toys like these.

 

[ciociosan]

As a Swede living in Lund, I'd much rather have an Apple Store in Copenhagen. Stockholm is halfway to Russia from where I'm sitting.

 

[johax84]

Nice, another reason to go to Stockholm, Sweden more often.
Next step we want one in Mariehamn, Aland Islands. But that will never happen ofcourse.

 

[SwoopAEG]

Probable location

I think this is where they're gonna put it:

Hamngatan 15, Stockholm, quite a nice old building.
Right next to Audi Forum, an Audi showroom.
