The online giant Amazon announced on Tuesday, Jan. 27, that it is closing its Fresh grocery and cashierless Go convenience stores as it moves away from brick-and-mortar retail.
According to Amazon, some physical store locations will be converted into Whole Foods Market stores.
Amazon also highlighted further testing of its “store within a store” experience, which allows shoppers at a Whole Foods in Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania, to shop and pick up Amazon orders.
News of the store closures also coincided with another big announcement from Amazon on Wednesday, Jan. 28.
This latest downsizing follows a round of job cuts in October, when Amazon laid off 14,000 workers.
