JAKARTA Meta is not only ambitious in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), but also in the field of hardware. Reportedly, the technology company wants to open retail stores such as the Apple Store.
Sources familiar with the matter, quoted via Business Insider, said Meta had drawn up plans to open a retail store. In line with this plan, Meta will recruit retail employees.
Currently, Meta is running a project to expand its retail reach. However, it is not yet known what the project will look like, who is involved in it, and which countries this project is running.
In fact, Meta already has a physical retail store, namely the Meta Store. This store opens in Burlingame, California in 2022. In that place, users who are interested in Meta products can test their hardware directly.
Users can also try Meta Quest Virtual Reality (VR) headset and popular Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses in recent years. Despite having one store, Meta is more interested in the idea of expanding stores like the Apple Store.
The iPhone developer managed to reach many markets after setting up a new Apple Store every year. To date, Apple has owned 500 retail stores spread across the world.
If you are inspired by the Apple Store, Meta will definitely want to set up more than two retail stores going forward. It is not known how many stores Meta will build and how many years we will need to wait for this plan to be realized.
