In a recent move to bring the iPhone and Macintosh experience and related products that premium customers have come to love in the Kenyan market, Apple in partnership with Netsol, a local electronics distributor has officially launched the first Apple Experience Centre in East Africa.

The new exclusively Apple products’ experience center is located in Lavington Mall in Nairobi and will offer consumers a dedicated Apple Experience which will see them distribute a range of retail Apple products ranging from Apple iPhone, ipads, Macs and other related accessories.

Speaking during the launch which was hosted by Netsol execs., George Towey, Netsol Managing Director, spoke of his pleasure at partnering with Apple to bring their products closer to Kenyan consumers. He also reiterated his belief that a visit to the Netsol Experience Centre will open a customer’s eyes and hearts to one of the world’s most iconic brand as they will not only experience the latest and most stylish Apple products but also get to interact with Netsol’s able technical team on related technologies and applications.

The store opening has been seen as a huge investment in the region – with a tagged cost of approximately 15 Million KES (~USD 15,000) to set up – is also a strategic part of Apple’s delve into offering after-sales support for their products in the East Africa region.
