Reports indicate that Amazon is ready to launch thousands of cashier-less Amazon Go stores around the country over the next few years:
“Amazon is reportedly mulling a plan to open up to 3,000 Amazon Go locations by 2021 in major U.S. metropolitan areas, a likely multi-billion investment that could make the e-commerce giant one of the largest operators of convenience stores, people familiar with the matter told Bloomberg. Amazon declined to comment to the publication.”
P.S. If Amazon succeeds in opening these stores competition with Walmart will become even more fierce. Are you prepared for further sea-changes in the retail industry? Our experts can help you optimize your business plan: Schedule a meeting today!
