The newest information and communications technology available to homes, businesses and other organisations is being brought closer to the market with the opening last Thursday of a new high-tech retail outlet in Harare’s Arundel Village shopping centre.

The Solution Centre Arundel branch provides access to a wide range of ICT products and services, including Apple hardware, software and devices, for which the company is the authorised reseller in Zimbabwe.
“This is an exciting development that will provide easy access to all our products and services,” said Paul Georgeou, managing director of the company.
“We already have a principal operation on the Enterprise Road in Harare, as well as a branch in Hillside in Bulawayo, but this is the first wholly retail operation that we have created and is aimed at giving customers access to the products and services we provide to individuals and their homes, as well as to businesses, educational institutions and other organisations.”
He said Arundel was well-placed at the centre of Harare’s northern suburbs, with close proximity to various shopping and office complexes, schools, diplomatic missions and NGO headquarters, and ease of access would be matched by user-friendly opening hours and the variety of products on sale.
The new outlet will be manned by a manager and two members of staff, one of whom can provide basic service undertakings. More detailed service and repair work will be forwarded by staff to the existing Solution Centre operation on Enterprise Road, but customers can deliver and collect items at Arundel.
Solution Centre is best known for its connection to the Apple brand, as it is the authorised reseller of Apple products and is authorised as both a service provider of workshop facilities and as a training centre. The company also provides other brands of products and services to the local market, including those of Aruba Networks, Bose and other leading ICT brand names. The Arundel shop will sell hardware, software, accessories and peripheral items essential to the easy and efficient use of technology in daily living and work.
