The online shopping giant Amazon has entered the grocery delivery business in the UK. Its new service is called Amazon Pantry. A traditional pantry is a small room or cupboard in a house where people put food, plates and cutlery. Amazon's new product will provide customers with a next-day delivery service of groceries. It will mean there will be a lot of competition for the UK's traditional supermarkets. Amazon Pantry customers will be able to select from more than 4,000 goods ranging from food and drinks to health and beauty products. Customers will not be able to buy fresh fruit and vegetables yet. A new service for this called Amazon Fresh is in the planning stage and will be available later.
電商巨頭亞馬遜進(jìn)軍英國(guó)雜貨快遞服務(wù)業(yè)。這項(xiàng)新服務(wù)名叫“Amazon Pantry”。傳統(tǒng)意義上的pantry是指家庭小型儲(chǔ)藏室,或是儲(chǔ)藏柜,人們會(huì)將食物,餐具放入其中。亞馬遜推出的新產(chǎn)品將向顧客提供日用品快遞服務(wù)。這將增加英國(guó)傳統(tǒng)超市的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)壓力。亞馬遜“Pantry”顧客能夠選擇4000多種商品,范圍從食品飲料,到健康美容產(chǎn)品。目前,顧客還無(wú)法購(gòu)買新鮮的蔬菜和水果。“Amazon Fresh”正在計(jì)劃階段,不久將推出上市。
UK shoppers may not be all rushing to use Amazon's new grocery delivery service. There is a charge. All customers must already be members of Amazon's express delivery service Amazon Prime, which costs $120 a year. They will also have to pay a delivery charge of $4.50 for the first 20kg of shopping. Amazon Pantry spokeswoman Helene Parthenay said she thought people would like the convenience of the service. She said it would, "take the heavy lifting out of replenishing the basics and store cupboard essentials that people need every day." She added: "We are always looking to innovate on behalf of our customers and find ways to save them time and money."
