Apple has three other stores in Sweden, but one will be permanently closing eventually. In a statement shared
with Swedish publication Feber last week, Apple said it will not be renewing its lease for its
Väla Centrum store in Ödåkra, Sweden. Apple has yet to disclose an exact closure date for that location.
This news comes after Apple opened a new store in Seoul, South Korea, and permanently closed its Infinite Loop and Royal Hawaiian stores, all on January 20.
Apple operates 528 retail stores worldwide as of today.
