T-Mobile is ramping up its presence in North Carolina with the planned opening of 12 new retail stores across the state during 2023 and 2024. Seven stores have already opened, with the other five stores expected to open in coming months.
New stores include locations in Albemarle, Hillsborough, Hendersonville, Marion and Newton. Already opened in 2023 are units in Fayetteville, Goldsboro, Havelock, Hickory, Jacksonville, Leland and Rockingham. Last year, T-Mobile opened eight retail stores in the Tar Heel state, and with this latest expansion, the company is further solidifying its commitment to the region.
“North Carolina is one of the states where T-Mobile is growing fast and focused on establishing a stronger presence in both smaller and more rural communities,” said John Stevens, vice president for T-Mobile’s small markets and rural areas. “In some of these areas we’re opening our doors for the first time, which will bring us closer to our customers and businesses and allow us to tap skilled local workforce. We’re excited about our growth in North Carolina and look forward to making a positive impact in the region.”
Since the beginning of this year, T-Mobile has made substantial network investments in North Carolina including installing 130 new cell sites and upgrading more than 2,300 existing sites with 5G wireless service.
