The company is pivoting to license its "Just Walk Out" technology, now used by more than 200 retailers including colleges and airports, while focusing its physical retail strategy on grocery stores through Whole Foods Market and Amazon Fresh locations. Amazon's other physical retail experiments, including bookstores and "4-star" locations selling popular website items, have also struggled.
