Amazon is closing the supermarket chain that it spent nearly six years building from scratch. The tech and retail giant said it plans to close its Amazon Fresh stores "to prioritize investment in growth areas," in a company blog post on Tuesday. Amazon has around 60 Fresh stores in the US listed on its website. The company is also shuttering about 15 Amazon Go convenience stores, it said. Some of the locations are set to become Whole Foods stores, Amazon said. Read more about the closures at the link in our bio.
