Google Inc., which pulled its search engine from China in 2010, will shutter its shopping service in the nation today, the second time in three months it withdrew a product from the world’s largest Internet market.

The service will be ended because it “was not providing businesses with the level of impact we had hoped,” the company said in an e-mailed statement today.
