Apple M&A department

[Calimacdude1985]

Hey all,

I have a buddy who owns a few successful retail shops that focus on (mainly) apple repairs and reselling refurbished products. He's looking to retire and wants to sell them but is having trouble finding a buyer who wants to buy all at the same (doesn't want to deal with breaking them off individually for accounting purposes). Does anyone have any idea on how to get in touch with Apple's acquisition department? I know it's a long shot but there aren't any simply macs nearby and they're all profitable stores.

Any advice or contact info would be welcomed.

Can’t imagine Apple would be interested. If they wanted to open a local Apple store they just would. No need to buy anything.

I know it's a longshot but I also know Apple is trying to grow it's refurbished product side of the business, I was thinking more of some kind of extension of that into retail outlets.

One of the Apple Authorized service chains might be interested in expanding into his area. I’ve dealt with Simply Mac and there are others.

That's a good thought, thanks!
