Apple just signed a lease at Miami World Center to build... The largest Apple store in the world
Exact location TBD but almost certainly in the "Jewelry Box" on NE 8th & 1st Ave

Rea believes that the location for the new Apple Store could likely be on the first floor of the so-called "Jewelry Box," or in the retail space in Bezel, west of Sephora. If it will be the largest Apple retail space in the world, the building in World Square might not be big enough.
Apple already has plenty of stores in Miami, and the new retail location could open up even more space for customers and tourists.
The company is also preparing to open its first flagship store in India, as the country currently only has the online Apple Store, and a network of Apple Authorized Resellers for products. Apple has also begun hiring personnel in Malaysia and could launch its first brick-and-mortar retail venture there as well.
