Chrome Zone

Chrome Zone store at PC World, New Malden

Chrome Zone was a chain of retail stores owned by Google. In its years of operation, only two branches were ever opened, one inside the PC World located on Tottenham Court Road in, London, England, opened in late September 2011,[1] and another based in Essex, England which opened on October 7 of the same year.

Chrome Zone sold Chromebooks that ran the ChromeOS and accessories.[1] In a statement released by the Google UK Head of Consumer Marketing Arvind Desikan in 2011, it was revealed that the London and Essex stores were only the first installments of "mini-shops" to be spread out internationally in the coming years.[1] However, no further Chrome Zone locations were opened besides the two in England, and all Chrome Zone stores were eventually shut down.
