Micro Center, a major retailer of PC building supplies, is ready to expand to the Sunshine State. The company plans to open its first store in Florida on Friday, Aug. 23, in Miami. Last Friday, Micro Center officially announced the opening date while teasing deals for consumers who come during the grand opening. The Miami store will be located at 7795 W. Flagler St., which appears to be in the Mall of The Americas. “As part of the grand opening, Micro Center will feature incredible deals, including 20% off on Windows laptops, desktops, and more,” the company said. Like other locations, the store promises to be stocked with over 25,000 in-store items.
Micro Center is beloved among PC builders because it carries an extensive collection of desktop hardware, including CPUs, graphics cards, and hard drives. The retailer also offers price matching, making it a competitive alternative to Amazon, Best Buy, and Newegg. The Ohio-based company has a relatively small US presence, with stores in about 16 US states. But that began to change last year when Micro Center opened a store in Indianapolis — its first new location in nearly a decade.

This year, the company opened another new location in Charlotte, North Carolina, on June 7, following a temporary delay. The Miami location will be Micro Center’s 28th store. A 29th store is scheduled to open later this year in Santa Clara, California; it will be the first Micro Center in the San Francisco Bay Area. But no opening date has been announced so far.
