Comcast Opens Second Xfinity Detroit Store at Gateway Marketplace Shopping Center

August 17, 2021

PLYMOUTH, Mich. (June 24, 2021) – Comcast announced today the opening of its second Xfinity®
retail store in Detroit at 1367 Eight Mile Road. The store is located in the Gateway Marketplace
Shopping Center next to the former Michigan State Fairgrounds.

The new 4,100-square-foot Xfinity store, which cost $800,000 to build, is designed entirely around the
needs of customers. The space features contemporary hands-on displays and comfortable seating
areas where customers can learn from trained technology specialists and interact with all Xfinity
products, including internet, video, connected home solutions and Xfinity Mobile.

“This past year has reinforced just how critical fast, reliable internet is to our livelihood,” explained
Melissa Bahoora, Comcast’s vice president of sales in Michigan. “We want our customers to
understand and leverage all of the features and capabilities our products and services provide. Giving
Detroiters a second location in the city to try out our products is the best way to educate them on how
the technology they rely on every day can provide more convenience and added value.”

Comcast, which delivers speeds up to 1.2 Gigabit-per-second (Gbps) to residential customers
throughout the entire city, has served Detroit since 1994. In the last three years, the company has
invested more than $850 million in technology and infrastructure, including upgrades to its broadband
network in Michigan.

The new store, which replaced the now closed Lyndon Street customer service center, is open Monday
through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. Customers may schedule
their visit by making an appointment here beginning today.
