Amazon to bring Whole Foods delivery to San Francisco

Amazon is planning to expand its Whole Foods delivery service to at least two of the organic grocer’s stores in San Francisco, reports Bloomberg. Currently, the two-hour delivery service—free for Prime customers—is available at stores in just four cities around the country: Dallas, Austin, Cincinnati, and Virginia Beach. It’s not clear when the service will begin in San Francisco.

Amazon.com Inc. is expanding its grocery deliveries from Whole Foods stores to include San Francisco and Atlanta, bringing the total to six U.S. cities.

Customers of Amazon Prime can get free 2-hour delivery on orders of more than $35, Amazon said in a statement Tuesday.

Amazon, which bought Whole Foods last year, began offering delivery in four markets in February: Dallas and Austin, Texas; Cincinnati; and Virginia Beach, Virginia. Amazon plans continued expansion across the U.S. throughout the year.

Workers will select groceries off the shelves from at least two San Francisco Whole Foods stores and bag them for delivery to online customers, people familiar with the matter told Bloomberg on Monday.
