E-reader outlets expansion planned by Pocketbook in the U.S.

Michael Kozlowski, a seasoned writer focusing on audiobooks, e-books, and e-readers, resides in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

In an exciting development, Pocketbook, a leading e-reader manufacturer, announced plans to establish its first USA-based e-reader kiosk stores in Seattle and Kansas City, starting November 10. This move signifies Pocketbook's commitment to expanding its presence in the US market.

Historically, companies like Pocketbook open initial physical stores in major US cities to test market acceptance, build brand recognition, and provide hands-on customer experiences. Cities such as Seattle and Kansas City, with their strong tech adoption and diverse populations, are ideal locations for such pilot projects. These initial openings often serve as stepping stones for broader national expansion.

As for the e-readers that will be available in these stores, the current lineup includes the Pocketbook Pro 902, Pro 6002, Pocketbook 301, 302, and Pocketbook 360.

In addition to the Seattle and Kansas City stores, Pocketbook has chosen Kansas City as its company headquarters. After a trial period, the company plans to open up another 20 stores in the USA starting next year.

While there is no new information about the launch of the Pocketbook IQ 701 tablet, Pocketbook is reported to sell approximately 50,000 e-readers monthly worldwide.

For detailed, current information on Pocketbook's US strategy, including the launch of the Pocketbook IQ 701 tablet and any updates on their e-reader kiosk stores, headquarters, sales, or available e-readers, we recommend checking the company's official press releases or recent news articles directly from 2025 or beyond.

Gadgets like the Pocketbook Pro 902 and Pocketbook 301 are part of the technology that will be available for hands-on customer experiences at Pocketbook's newly announced e-reader kiosk stores in Seattle and Kansas City. With its expansion into the US market, Pocketbook aims to increase the popularity of e-readers in major tech-savvy cities.
