Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) said on Wednesday it is opening a second store in Shenzhen, China as the tech giant continues to maintain its presence in the country amid a further push into India.
The store, known as Apple MixC Shenzhen, will open on Friday and feature a Padang Light stone floor and a timber veneer-clad wall, both sourced from within China.

In addition, the store has an Apple Pickup location, allowing shoppers to order online and pick-up their products in-store when it's convenient for them.
The store is Apple's (AAPL) 55th in the region and fourth in the Guangdong province of China. Its first store in Shenzhen opened in 2012.
Cupertino, California-based Apple (AAPL) now has over 520 stores worldwide, including its first two retail stores in India, in Mumbai and New Delhi.
Despite all the recent talk of Apple's (AAPL) push into India, China is still an important part of the world for the tech giant as it generated $23.9B in revenue from Greater China in its most recent quarter.
