Microsoft Corp. has closed all its remaining bricks-and-mortar retail stores in the Chinese mainland as part of its global strategy revamp to shift retail operations online.
The American tech giant had terminated all its authorized stores in China by June 30, retaining only offline locations for after-sales services and its online storefronts on Taobao and JD.com, according to a person claiming to be manager of a Microsoft store in Zhengzhou, Henan province, who wrote online.
