Amazon has officially rolled out its next-day grocery delivery service in the UK, having already debuted in Japan, Germany and the US.
Amazon Pantry is now available to Amazon Prime customers, who will pay £2.99 for the first 20kg delivery box they use, and 99p for any additional boxes.
This latest move is the e-commerce giant’s most ambitious foray into Britain’s growing online grocery market. However, it stops short of replicating its broader US Amazon Fresh service, which offers about 20,000 chilled, frozen and perishable products and items from local shops.
Retail analysts have speculated the US company is gearing up for a launch of Amazon Fresh the UK next year.
