CHICAGO — FansEdge, a provider of licensed sports products, announced the opening of a new store in Aurora, Ill. that will use multiple marketing channels, including kiosks and other interactive technology, to tout its products.

Customers may order items for various sports teams in different colors, sizes and styles, by simply using the kiosk.
