Amazon Partners with Winn-Dixie for Grocery Delivery in Florida
On September 18, 2023, Amazon announced a partnership with Winn-Dixie to offer same-day grocery deliveries in select Florida markets. This move aims to compete with Kroger, which has established a successful e-commerce business in the state despite lacking physical stores, generating over $14 billion in e-commerce revenue in 2024.
Amazon, valued at $2.5 trillion and having reported $670 billion in trailing-12-month revenue, has been actively expanding in the grocery sector since acquiring Whole Foods for nearly $14 billion in 2017. This partnership marks a significant shift toward e-commerce in the grocery industry, as other major players like Walmart and Target have also invested heavily in this sector.
