Apple to shut store in troubled mall APPLE decided to close a store in China for the first time after several other retailers left the shopping mall where it is located. The Apple Store in Parkland Mall in Dalian will close because the mall has been embroiled in litigation since 2022 and other retailers already departed the same location, the U.S. company’s China arm said. The shop will cease operations at 8 p.m. Aug. 9. Coach, Kenzo, Hugo Boss, MCM Worldwide, Kate Spade, Armani, Sandro, Maje, UGG, Max Mara and other brands already closed their shops there upon their leases expiring.
