Amazon announces closure of three Just Walk Out-powered Amazon Fresh stores

Product updates

  • Amazon has announced the closure of three of its Just Walk Out-powered Amazon Fresh stores in the UK, including a West London location, which was Amazon's first Just Walk Out grocery store outside of the US. The other two stores that will be closed are in Wandsworth and East Sheen.

  • As per Amazon, the closures resulted from a periodic reassessment of the company’s store portfolio and did not indicate a move away from the Fresh store formats. The company plans to launch new Amazon Fresh locations in the greater London area in 2023. 

  • Analyst QuickTake : Amazon also recently has been reassessing its US store portfolio, and in February 2023 , announced its plans to slow the expansion of its Just Walk Out and Amazon One-powered brick-and-mortar stores with plans to close certain Amazon Fresh and Go stores with low-growth potential. However, Amazon has continued to roll out its automated store technologies at other retail locations, including the Amazon-owned grocery retailer, Whole Foods locations, as well as Six Flags and Panera Bread restaurants .
