Amazon on Wednesday unveiled plans to open more bookstores and "4-star" shops selling only the best-rated products - while closing its smaller "pop-up" kiosks in the US.
"After much review, we came to the decision to discontinue our pop-up kiosk program, and are instead expanding Amazon Books and Amazon 4-star," a spokeswoman told AFP. "We look forward to opening additional locations of both stores this year."
According to CNBC, the 87 pop-up stores in the US will close next month. Launched in 2014, the stands - located in shopping centers or in other stores, such as Amazon-owned Whole Foods - offered the company's services and electronics.
