US EditionAmazon Makes It Easier to Order Groceries for Prime Members, Pressuring Traditional Grocers
Amazon offers free same-day delivery for Prime members on orders over $25 and plans to triple its grocery delivery network to 2,300 locations by year-end, focusing on rural areas.
- On Wednesday, Amazon announced its major grocery expansion with thousands of perishable items, as the move marks one of the retailer’s most significant logistics developments.

- Amazon said the expansion has increased repeat shopping among first-time grocery customers, with some returning twice as often for same-day delivery.
- In cities like Las Vegas, Prime members can order groceries within hours, competing with Walmart+ benefits launched in 2020.
