CompUSA opening more 'Retail 2.0' stores

CompUSA has announced the opening of three new retail stores: Houston, Texas, Newark, Del., and Euless, Texas. These new openings make a total of 32 CompUSA stores in the United States and Puerto Rico, each complete with "Retail 2.0," CompUSA's new store concept.

"CompUSA is thrilled to be opening new stores in these markets," said Gilbert Fiorentino, chief executive of the Systemax Technology Products Group, which includes CompUSA. "We look forward to providing shoppers not only with great deals on computers, HDTVs, components, and other consumer electronics, but offering them the chance to experience a completely new approach to retail shopping with Retail 2.0."

All three stores are fully integrated with Retail 2.0, CompUSA's concept which empowers shoppers by placing the Internet at arms' reach on nearly 300 screens throughout the store, from laptops to desktops to HDTVs. With a single touch, consumers can access full product information including image galleries, product manuals, customer reviews, price comparisons, compatible products available in-store and video demonstrations. Customers are also free to browse competitor sites and comparison shop as if they were in the comfort of their own home or office.
