A final decision has not been reached yet, according to an LG Electronics official.

However, “LG probably wants to close the deal by the end of July, which is when the last sales of LG phones will come to an end”.

There are over 400 LG Best Shop locations around South Korea, so this could be a major expansion of Apple retail space in the country.

In April, the company announced that it will be withdrawing from the mobile business.

The South Korean company said in a regulatory filing that its mobile communications (MC) unit will no longer produce and sell handsets after July 31, citing a slump in business and fierce competition in the industry as the reasons behind the decision.

The announcement came two months after the company said its MC division is open to “all possibilities” for its future operations.

The company said its exit from the mobile business will lead to a decline in revenue in the short term but will eventually improve its financial status and management efficiency in the longer period.
