uBreakiFix Repairs Smartphones, Computers, And More At New Uptown Minneapolis Location

New Business Aims to Keep Community Connected During Social Distancing

May 11, 2020 // Franchising.com // MINNEAPOLIS - Electronics repair shop uBreakiFix is now open at 921 West Lake Street. The store offers repairs on smartphones, tablets, computers, and more to help Uptown Minneapolis stay connected during the current crisis and beyond.

“Amidst social distancing, technology enables us to work remotely, homeschool, order goods, entertain ourselves, connect with loved ones, and so much more,” said Hyle Erwin, owner of uBreakiFix Uptown Minneapolis. “At uBreakiFix, we understand that a broken phone, tablet, or laptop is more than just inconvenient right now. We’re open and ready to serve, with stringent measures in place to keep the experience as safe and seamless as possible.”

Health and safety measures include high-frequency handwashing and cleaning of all workspaces, minimal person-to-person contact, limited store capacity to align with social distancing recommendations, and thorough sanitation of all devices upon receipt and return. uBreakiFix also offers contactless curbside service for customers who do not wish to enter inside the store.

While common devices include smartphones, tablets, and computers, uBreakiFix offers repair service on anything with a power button, including drones, hoverboards, game consoles, and everything in between. The store offers support for most technical problems on any electronic device, regardless of make or model.

uBreakiFix Uptown Minneapolis is owned by Hyle Erwin, who also owns uBreakiFix Maple Grove and plans to open five more locations in the greater Minneapolis area.

“Our opening is a little different than we imagined, of course, due to the current climate,” Erwin said. “Our services are more critical now than ever before, with electronics playing a big role in keeping us connected to family, work, school, emergency services, and more. There’s enough to stress about right now; a broken phone shouldn’t compound that.”

uBreakiFix was founded in 2009 by millennial entrepreneurs Justin Wetherill and David Reiff to fill a gap in the market for affordable, high-quality phone repair. The duo soon partnered with Eddie Trujillo to transition their Internet-based repair brand to a brick-and-mortar model. uBreakiFix began franchising in 2013 and currently operates more than 560 locations across the U.S. and Canada.

“At uBreakiFix, our story has been shaped by an unwavering commitment to continually improving the repair experience for customers,” Wetherill said. “We founded this company to fill a need for high-quality, convenient repair with great service at a fair price. We always say we’re a customer service company first, and a tech company second. As we begin serving Uptown Minneapolis and the surrounding communities, we look forward to sharing the care and credibility that define the uBreakiFix experience.”

uBreakiFix Uptown Minneapolis is located at 921 West Lake St., Minneapolis, MN 55408 and can be reached at: (612) 655-2890. For more information and to view a service menu, visit ubreakifix.com/locations/uptownminneapolis.
