- AnimalMuppet 7y agoSure, but... what if I want food from Sprouts? Or just from some generic place, without paying Whole Foods prices? Amazon would like some of that action, too. They know we're not all going to buy from Whole Foods just because Amazon will deliver it.
- greenyoda 7y ago> Amazon would like some of that action, too. Why would they? Is food delivery a profitable business? I get the impression that all the current food delivery businesses are losing money and are being financed by VC investments. And even if it is a profitable business, is that a business that Amazon would want to invest in building up, compared to all the other things that they could potentially invest in (e.g., growing AWS)?
