Amazon Tests Yet Another Brick-and-Mortar Format
For a digital retailer, Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) has a lot of different brick-and-mortar formats in some stage of development. The company is adding Amazon Pop Up to a lineup that includes bookstores, the Go convenience and grocery stores, Amazon 4-star, and, of course, the established Whole Foods chain.
The Pop Up model is low-tech compared to Go, which lets customers check out without visiting a cashier. These new stores are fairly basic and have cashiers because, in this case, it's all about the merchandise.
