Apple Inc, which just became China’s number one smartphone vendor, expects to open stores in another five cities based on advertisements that it placed for retail staff.

It is hiring staff for its stores in Guangzhou, Shenyang, Tianjin, Nanjing and Dalian, where they currently don’t have outlets, Bloomberg News reported on Friday, citing advertisements posted on Apple’s website.

Apple has 15 stores in the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong by 2014, and the firm plans to lift that to 25 soon.
