The globally-renowned Amazon has been busy expanding its Amazon Fresh high-tech grocery store concept.
Amazon debuted Amazon Fresh in 2020, in Woodland Hills, California. Other recent Amazon Fresh store openings include four units opened in Roseville, California, Tinley Park in Illinois, Lodi in New Jersey and Bensalem in Pennsylvania in late August 2024 and a location which launched in Eatontown, New Jersey in June 2024.
The Amazon Fresh format features a variety of high-tech omni-channel features designed to merge online grocery shopping with an elevated in-store experience. These include fast grocery delivery and pickup options, and all four new locations feature the Amazon Dash Cart smart shopping cart and Amazon One palm-based payment devices.
Some locations, which typically measure between roughly 30,000 and 60,000sq ft, also feature Amazon’s latest brick-and-mortar design unveiled last year in select Chicago and Southern California stores and in an Amazon Fresh store that opened earlier this month in Glen Burnie, Maryland (part of the suburban Baltimore metro market).
In addition, customers who shop Amazon Fresh stores can save up to 30 per cent on 4,000 weekly rotating grocery items across the aisles both in-store and online, every day. Prime members have exclusive access to Prime Savings, which offers 10 per cent of on hundreds of additional grocery items across the aisles.
