The tech behemoth has a tremendous sales record in the region, despite having only a handful of retail outlets in key countries like China.

CEO Tim Cook knows how important China in particular is to the future of Apple (AAPL), saying in January that China will one day surpass the United States as the company's top market.

Earlier this week, the nonprofit China Labor Watch issued a report saying that one off Apple's major suppliers -- Pegatron -- violated labor rules and industry standards as it worked to pump out iPhones and Mac computers.
