Dive Brief:

• Amazon and Sprint are both said to be possible buyers of RadioShack stores as the struggling retailer prepares for bankruptcy.

• The retail company Monday was delisted from the New York Stock Exchange because it lacks the minimum valuation to be listed on the exchange.

• The retailer’s 5,000 once-booming dealer stores have also struggled, and some are closing down. 

Dive Insight:

It looks like the end of the RadioShack brand at this point. Some sources say that Sprint and RadioShack have discussed co-branding stores, which could make sense for RadioShack because it has already established a store-within-a-store approach, including through independent dealers. But if it’s true that Amazon is interested in establishing a brick-and-mortar presence by snapping up RadioShack stores, any vestigial branding is unlikely.
