Interesting Conversation with an AP Boutique

[OH2004]

Dallas is not 100% corporate. It's owned by Material Good and AP. I don't believe their CRM is connected. Bal Harbour is 100% corporate while Miami is 50/50 corporate/westime.

Only nyc and Miami bal Harbour is corporately owned.

FWIW, if you search on the AP Website for “Where to Buy” and search “United States”, you get the following results:

1) AP Boutique (Dallas)
2) AP Boutique (NYC)
3) AP Boutique (Manhasset)
4) AP Boutique (Miami - Bal Harbour)
5) AP Boutique (Miami - Westime)
6) AP Boutique (Atlanta - WoS)
7) AP Boutique (Las Vegas - Westime)
8) AP Boutique (East Hampton - NY)
9) AP Boutique (Chicago)
10) AP Boutique (Boston)
11) AP Boutique (Beverly Hills - Westime)
12) Retailer - Zadok Jewelers (Houston)
13) Retailer - ECJ Luxe Collection (Boca Raton - FL)
14) Retailer - Venetzia (Las Vegas)
15) Retailer - Hing Wa Lee (San Gabriel - CA)
16) Retailer - Material Good (NYC)

First 11 are official “AP Boutiques”. The remaining five (5) are designated and recognized as “AP Retailers”.

So, if not all AP Boutique CRMs talk to one another (apart from perhaps Westime), seems a bit of a free-for-all for those who have scattered AP purchase history across the continental U.S.

Separately, do we think the 5 retailers are safe from AP pulling their authorized dealer status for the foreseeable future?
