Is It Google Inc (GOOG)’s Turn to Try Retail?

Google’s not the first tech titan mentioned in the same breath as retail, nor will it be the last. Making a Google retail experience unique would be key, much like Apple’s done. Imagine wandering over to the prototype of Google’s self-driving car, or getting snapshots taken by a hovering mini-drone, all while sporting interactive Glasses.

A Google store could be fun for consumers, but it’ll be serious business for management should it come to pass. Showcasing new products and innovations, generating opportunities to differentiate itself from a slew of rivals, and staying at the forefront of the ever-changing tech industry all point to Google retail stores on the horizon. Hopefully for Google shareholders, the rumors turn out be true.
