“Samsung has closed its high-profile Samsung Experience store in one of Europe’s biggest shopping centres.

“We regret to announce that we will be closing the Samsung Experience Store at Westfield Stratford City at the end of this year”, Samsung told CNET today. Photographs posted on Twitter by visitors to the mall in London show the shop already being dismantled.”

On the surface this seems odd, but in reality this was one of the stores totally owned by Samsung and not part of their joint deal with Carphone Warehouse opening Experience Stores throughout the UK.

One of the reasons given for the closure was its poor performance. My sympathies go out to all the staff who lost their jobs. In total 53 full time and 5 part time jobs.
