Zoom convenience stores are slowly disappearing from Dubai Metro stations and honestly it feels a bit surprising. If you are someone who regularly travels by metro you might have already noticed a few shutters down or stores missing at some stations.
Zoom stores were once a go to spot for grabbing a quick coffee snack or recharge while travelling. But now several of these outlets inside metro stations are closing or not being renewed. The main reason behind this change is the shift in retail strategy and rising operational costs inside metro premises.
Authorities are slowly reviewing which retail formats work best for metro commuters. Some stations may soon see different types of shops or services instead of Zoom stores. For daily travellers this means fewer quick stop options at some stations at least for now.
So next time you walk through a metro station and feel something is missing yes it might be that familiar Zoom store.
