AT&T Inc. (T) said Thursday it plans to add more than 1,000 new store locations, including pop-up stores in apartment buildings.

The company said it is putting AT&T pop-up stores in apartment buildings and other locations in dense urban environments. AT&T said it can typically open these stores within 60 days of signing a lease and plans to launch 100 pop-ups this year.

The company also said it plans for more than 150 mobile stores to be on the road by the end of this year. AT&T said it already has such stores when it sponsors events or in new neighborhoods with AT&T Fiber service.

AT&T said it plans to add hundreds of stores in smaller U.S. cities and towns.

Shares of AT&T were recently up slightly to $33.40.
