ORLANDO, Fla., April 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leading tech repair provider uBreakiFix celebrated 31 new store openings in the first quarter of 2021, more than doubling last year’s Q1 growth as demand for electronics repair continues to surge. These first quarter additions bring the company’s total footprint to 643 stores across North America.
Notable areas of growth included California, Maryland, and Ontario, each with three new locations, as well as Hawaii, which welcomed its first uBreakiFix location in Kailua in February. In addition to growing its brick-and-mortar footprint, uBreakiFix continues to expand its We Come to You service, which brings smartphone repair straight to customers’ doorsteps via a network of more than 600 mobile repair vehicles.
“The past year has forever changed the way we live, work, and connect with one another,” said uBreakiFix Co-founder Justin Wetherill. “Part of that change is an increased reliance on personal technology, which has amplified the need for tech repair and support. We have certainly felt the demand in our stores, and it makes our growth that much more rewarding to know we’re able to help more people stay connected to the things that are important to them.”
uBreakiFix looks forward to continuing the first quarter’s momentum in Q2 and beyond. In addition to exploring new ways to serve and support customers, the company plans to open around 40 new locations between April 1 and June 30. The quarter is off to a strong start with new stores already open in New York, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and California.
