SAN DIEGO, Aug. 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tech repair brand uBreakiFix opened its newest location, uBreakiFix Downtown San Diego , on August 10 at 1501 India Street, Suite 101. This is the brand’s second location in San Diego, joining a store at Midway Drive.
uBreakiFix services anything with a power button, including smartphones, game consoles, tablets, computers, drones, hoverboards, and everything in between. To date, uBreakiFix has completed more than 4.5 million repairs. While common fixes include cracked screens, software issues, and camera issues, the brand offers support for most technical problems on any electronic device, regardless of make or model.
Through strategic partnerships with leading technology companies, including Samsung and Google, uBreakiFix provides Samsung Galaxy customers and Google Pixel and Pixelbook customers with manufacturer-backed, same-day repair services using genuine parts. Through the partnership with Samsung, Galaxy owners can get in and out-of-warranty repairs at more than 300 locations nationwide, with most repairs completed in two hours or less.
uBreakiFix Downtown San Diego is locally owned and operated by Ahmad Bashir, who has lived in San Diego for more than 20 years and looks forward to opening three additional uBreakiFix locations across the area.
“I own other franchises and am very in tune with the industry,” Bashir said. “I’ve been following along with uBreakiFix for a while and have found it to be one of the best franchise opportunities currently available. With an incredible company culture, supportive corporate team, and many strategic partnerships, uBreakiFix leads the industry with exceptional customer experience. I’m thrilled to be a part of this team and to serve the communities of San Diego with the best tech repair in the industry.”
uBreakiFix was founded in 2009 by millennial duo Justin Wetherill and David Reiff, who later partnered with Eddie Trujillo to transition their Internet-based brand to a brick and mortar model.
