This one’s been a long time coming…
Per 9to5Mac and MacRumors, office retailer Staples had a meeting today with corporate employees announcing that Apple products were coming to their stores. The company followed up with a tweet to confirm that a deal with Apple has been finalized and that their stores will begin selling Apple products. Staples Senior Vice President of Global Human Resources Regit Mulot confirmed the deal on Twitter, albeit this tweet has since been deleted.
While there’s no mention of what Apple products Staples would carry, it’s been overheard that Staples would carry Apple’s full lineup of Macs, iPads as well as the iPhone 5 in their stores.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
