Sprint to Open 1,435 RadioShack Stores April 10

Apr 9, 2015, 10:49 AM by Eric M. Zeman

Sprint said it will re-open 1,435 RadioShack stores tomorrow that it acquired from General Wireless. The move will double the number of company-owned stores and give Sprint a much wider retail footprint around the country. The stores will be co-branded Sprint-RadioShack, but Sprint will be the main brand associated with each location. Sprint plans to build a store-within-a-store covering approximately one third of the retail space in each location. It will use this space to sell Sprint-, Virgin-, and Boost-branded hardware and service plans. Sprint said RadioShack's products and accessories will also be available at each location. General Wireless is holding into about 310 RadioShack stores. Sprint acquired the stores as part of RadioShack's bankruptcy restructuring.

And they want their "Sprint will be bankrupt any day now" doomsayers back. If you'll notice, most of those prognosticators are no longer on the forum. It looks as if they went out first! 🤣
