Amazon expands Whole Foods delivery, pickup to additional markets

10/11/2018
Even more Whole Foods Markets customers can now take advantage of Amazon’s online delivery options.

The online giant on Wednesday said it has launched free two-hour delivery from Whole Foods through Prime Now across Annapolis, Maryland; Cleveland, Ohio; Louisville, Kentucky; North and Central New Jersey and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It will also be expanding into more areas across New York City, Seattle and the San Francisco Bay Area.

The program offers Prime members two-hour delivery for free and ultra-fast delivery within one hour for $7.99 on orders of $35 or more. The service is now available in 53 cities, according to Amazon.

In addition, the online retailer now offers its grocery pickup service in Whole Foods Markets stores operating in Louisville; Dayton, Ohio, and Omaha, Nebraska. The service enables Prime members to pick up their order at a local Whole Foods Market store within an hour — without leaving their car.

Customers can choose free pickup within an hour on orders of $35. A $4.99 fee applies orders ready within 30 minutes. Including these cities, the service is now available in eight markets. More cities will be added throughout 2018.

Amazon’s curbside service takes a swipe at rivals Walmart and Target, as well as supermarket operators, including Kroger, Publix and H-E-B, which also offer drive-up grocery pickup options.
