PC builders in North Carolina, rejoice! Popular electronics retailer Micro Center is preparing to open a new store in Charlotte on June 7.
The company originally had to postpone the store opening, citing an “unforeseen delay.” But in a new post, Micro Center says it will hold a grand opening next Friday.
"We hope to see everyone there for an incredible event with plenty of deals on PC parts and 20% off all Windows laptops and desktops,” the retailer added. The store, which is located at 4744 South Blvd, will also feature more than 25,000 computer models and electronic parts.
Micro Center is expanding its retail presence in the US. Last year, it opened its first store in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Charlotte opening will bring Micro Center's total store count to 27.
The retailer also plans to open two more stores in the US later this year—one in Santa Clara, California, and another in Miami—though we don't have official open dates.
The expansion is good news for PC builders since Micro Center is known for carrying a wide range of PC parts and products, often at low prices. Consumers regularly line up outside Micro Center locations when a new high-profile graphics card launches. With the Indianapolis and Charlotte stores, it still only has a presence in 18 states, but a Micro Center spokesperson said last year that the company is in "an exciting time of growth."
