LONDON (Reuters) -Amazon.com said it planned to close all of its 19 Amazon Fresh UK convenience grocery stores, of which five would be converted to its Whole Foods Markets brand, less than five years after it entered the market.
Amazon Fresh pioneered "walk out" technology in Britain, enabling customers to skip the checkout line when they picked up groceries, including its own "by Amazon" brand.
