Restaurant prices meanwhile also hit a new 40-year high during the period.Īs I noted in Restaurant Business, restaurant operators have good reason to be nervous about the fast growth of Amazon Fresh, given its convenience, low prices and buffet of ready-to-eat offerings. The deals on both groceries and prepared foods are notable, and especially enticing, given Tuesday’s federal report that food-away-from-home prices rose another 0.9% in June, up 7.7% this year, the highest rate since 1981. And the vast selection of prepared foods had me making a note to come back again with my kids for a cheap and easy lunch or dinner. Knowing I wouldn’t have to fight for a place in the checkout line made the shopping experience much more relaxing than usual.
Once inside, the 50,000-square-foot store struck me as bright, clean and well-organized. Workers also cruised the line, showing us how to download the Amazon shopping app and call up the all-important QR code for entry and payment. Amazon Fresh workers gave us tote bags with snacks from Plenty, along with some store coupons.
