IFAR Services - Keeping the World Connected
When anyone asks, “Where can I go to fix my iPhone, tablet or broken screen?” the answer is iFixandRepair! We offer services perfectly suited for today’s connected world. As wireless and mobile usage increases, devices become more and more important to all of us. Once a phone or device purchase is made, keeping the information on that device intact and staying connecting to friends, family or colleagues for work, business or pleasure is critical. Students and children are now a part of this consumer group as tablets are launched in many school districts as learning tools. IFAR is well-positioned to serve all of these customers.
A Proven Business Model
We have been operating stores in this technology space for over 20 years as multi-unit operators of major telephone carrier retail outlets. IFAR was created to meet the needs of customers after they make their primary phone or mobile device purchases. We added computer repair, gaming console services and enhanced our inventory of accessories to better meet the needs of our customers. As we grow, we continue to offer the most up-to-date services and identify new products.
