If you need to know anything about the future Apple store at the West Edmonton Mall (Canada) mall, just ask mall president Don Ghermezian. He has told the Edmonton Journal newspaper that the store will open on July 1st, and that it will cover 6,000 square-feet. Even more revealing, Ghermezian told the reporter that the store has “projected annual sales of $30 million.” Ghermezian was a little hazy on his statement that Apple, “just recently expanded into Canada,” but was perhaps more correct that, “They’ve been a smashing success in Toronto.” Apple just began advertising for jobs at the new store, making Ghermezian’s July 1st opening date prediction a good possibility.

This is great news about an Apple Store at West Edmonton Mall. This city has needed a full service and Apple oriented store with competent genius bar and so forth. This city is very tech oriented and Mac users will no doubt find this a perfect support system. If it is really a 6000 sq foot store, this will be a very large Apple Store which is even better news as they will carry the kinds of third party Mac supporting products that no one else carries in town..I do hope..
