London: Amazon plans to shut all its grocery stores in Britain, after the shops without checkout registers failed to compete with online delivery demand.
The US tech giant on Tuesday said the decision would impact all 19 Amazon Fresh stores, less than five years after opening.
Amazon Fresh stores allow customers to choose groceries and simply walk out, as a tracking system charges the shopping to their bank accounts.
The company said it made its decision following "a thorough evaluation of business operations and the very substantial growth opportunities in online delivery".
Amazon will launch a same-day fresh food delivery service next year.
