Chinese authorities in the southwestern city of Kunming have launched a sweeping investigation of electronics stores after media reports said one retail outlet seemed to be copying Apple Inc.'s store format.
The inspection will cover business licenses, authorized permits of brand use, and the purchasing channels of each store, said China's state-run Xinhua news agency, citing a worker with the city's industrial and commercial department.
Results of the inspection will be announced to the public soon, the report said. Kunming municipal government officials couldn't be reached for comment.
