Corinth, Miss. (January 11, 2013) –
C Spire Wireless, the only wireless provider in the U.S. that offers consumers and businesses a suite of personalized wireless services, today announced the grand opening of its newly remodeled 2,200 square foot retail store in Corinth.
The new store, located at 2300 South Harper Road, features C Spire’s latest wireless devices, feature phones, smartphones and accessories as well as the company’s industry-leading personalization program, which gives customers apps and content that fit who they are, services that anticipate their needs and rewards for using their phone in new ways.
The store officially opens today with an 11:30 a.m. ribbon-cutting, reception and celebration featuring C Spire executives, elected officials and local business and community leaders in Corinth and Alcorn County. Food, prizes and giveaways will also be a part of the grand opening.
The Corinth store has a hands-on design to engage customers and provides a “try before you buy” personalized service experience, according to Chip Wood, market manager for C Spire. Wood and his 4-member staff are trained to assist consumer and business customers with individual purchasing decisions, personalized customer service and technical support. Regular store hours of operation are Monday through Saturday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
“Our newly remodeled retail location in Corinth will enhance our ability to provide our customers with the best individual, personalized service in the industry,” said Robert Hudson, regional manager of Retail Operations for C Spire Wireless. “We’re proud of our store, but we’re even more excited about continuing to contribute to the economic development of Corinth and Alcorn County.”
Hudson said the new retail location builds on C Spire’s significant capital and network investments in Corinth and Alcorn County. C Spire has invested more than $1.5 million since 2008 to expand its network and give Corinth and Alcorn County businesses and consumers the best personalized wireless experience available.
“C Spire’s expansion in Corinth will give us the opportunity to offer even more area residents and businesses the latest wireless devices, access to thousands of great apps and content, easy and affordable voice and data plans without overages and the best next-generation network available,” Hudson said. “We’re dedicated to offering unique and game-changing products and services that adapt to customers, understand who they area and are designed just for them.”
“Expansion of C Spire’s retail operations is good news for consumers and businesses in the city of Corinth and the surrounding area. C Spire is a great corporate neighbor and we really appreciate the investments they continue to make in our community and in our people,” said Corinth Mayor Tommy Irwin. “This announcement reinforces their high level of commitment to providing our residents and businesses with access to the latest wireless technology, including a strong network, a wide variety of devices, plans, apps and more.”
Local business leaders echoed Irwin’s praise of the company’s decision to select Corinth as one of the first markets for its new prototype retail store design. “C Spire’s efforts to expand its retail operations and enhance wireless coverage in Corinth will greatly benefit the communities in this region,” said Gary Chandler, president and CEO of the Corinth and Alcorn County Chamber of Commerce Alliance.
“Continued retail expansion and the provision of high-speed wireless data and the services and applications it supports are becoming increasingly important to both consumers and business users,” Chandler said. “We appreciate the work that C Spire is doing to extend the benefits of expanded broadband access to consumers and businesses who rely heavily on wireless technology for work and entertainment.”
