It will combine Currys and PC World stores, and add a Carphone Warehouse outlet to each store, which it says is more likely to create jobs than cut them.
Dixons Carphone chief executive, Seb James, said: "We are very confident that the impact on sales and colleague numbers will be neutral or better."
The electronics retailer also reported a positive Christmas period. Like-for-like sales in the 10 weeks to 9 January rose 5%, including a record day of trading on Black Friday.
