Dell moving in new retail directions
Monday, 4 February 2008
Online technology retailer Dell is tipped to be closing its Australian kiosks.
Smarthouse News has reported that the move follows a decision by Dell to close its 140 kiosks in the US.
Dell is reported to be in talks with Australian retailers, including Harvey Norman and JB Hi-Fi, about a plan to move into stores.
In the US, Dell sells its products through retailers Best Buy, Wal-Mart and Staples.
“Moving into retail is a prime example of Dell listening to its customers,” said Tony Weiss, vice president of Dell's global consumer business.
