A Legacy of Apple Expertise Since 1991

MACFORCE:

Founded in 1991, MacForce began as a comprehensive service and support provider for Apple users of all scales—from individual consumers to small businesses and large corporations. As our reputation grew, so did customer requests for our expertise in hardware and software purchases.

In 1998, we became an Apple-authorized reseller and service center, a status we proudly maintained for 13 years.

In 2001, we expanded our presence by opening a spacious showroom, training center, and Apple Museum in Southeast Portland's industrial district. This move catapulted us to become one of the fastest-growing Apple resellers nationwide.

MacForce quickly became integral to Portland's thriving Apple and Macintosh community. Our annual Summer Blast event, which combined a product expo with a food and music festival, became legendary.

We also gave back to the community through our Macs-2-Kids charity, supporting local school children and fostering partnerships with other local businesses.

Adapting to Change

The economic downturn in 2011 led us to make the difficult decision to relinquish our reseller status. We refocused on our core strengths: repair and on-site support.

Today, we are the only independent Apple Authorized Service Provider in the greater Portland area and remain a long-standing member of the Apple Consultants Network. Our relationship with Apple continues to thrive after more than thirty years.
