SAN FRANCISCO, Jan 14 (Reuters) – RadioShack Corp

said on Monday it ended a mobile phone partnership with Target

Corp as the retailers could not agree on a new deal that

would be profitable for both companies.

RadioShack, a struggling retailer of consumer electronics

and other gadgets, had been helping operate “Target Mobile”

stores within 1,500 of Target’s big box locations. RadioShack

said that deal will end on April 8.

“In order for RadioShack to have continued this

relationship, we needed to establish a new agreement that would

be financially appealing to both companies,” said RadioShack

executive vice president Telvin Jeffries in a statement.

“Ultimately, we amicably agreed to dissolve the relationship.”
