Amazon brings same-day grocery delivery to 1,000 more US cities
The company aims to extend the offering to 2,300 locations by the end of 2025. This service includes a wide range of groceries such as produce, dairy, meat, seafood, baked goods and frozen foods.
The same-day grocery delivery service complements Amazon's existing grocery delivery options, including Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods Market, both online and in stores.
The company plans to continue expanding this service through 2026.
Amazon Worldwide Amazon Stores CEO Doug Herrington stated: 'We're continuously innovating to make grocery shopping simpler, faster and more affordable for our customers, especially Prime members.'
Customers can now order fresh groceries alongside millions of other items, with free same-day delivery for Prime members on orders above $25.
Non-Prime members can access the service for a $12.99 fee.
The introduction of perishable groceries such as bananas, milk and eggs to the same-day delivery service in select regions has been well-received, leading to increased shopping frequency among customers. Popular items such as strawberries and Honeycrisp apples have become top sellers.
Amazon ensures the quality of fresh food through a specialised temperature-controlled fulfilment network and a six-point quality check.
Temperature-sensitive products are delivered in recyclable insulated bags.
Herrington added: 'After trying this service for occasional items, customers have discovered how much we've simplified online grocery shopping.
'Customers are enjoying online grocery delivery so much we're seeing them turn to Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods Market for even more of their grocery needs.'
Amazon has made gross sales of more than $100bn in groceries and household essentials in 2024.
In June 2025, the online retailer introduced three AI innovations to improve the logistics and delivery experience.

Tech Stocks Are Under Pressure. Why Some Wall Street Analysts Say That May Not Last
Tech stocks are having a rough day, extending their recent slump amid a sector rotation away from big tech leaders. The Nasdaq lost close to 1% in recent trading, and the S&P 500 slid 0.4% as tech sector losses weighed on the indexes. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was little changed as retail and consumer defensive names gained, while Amazon (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), and Nvidia (NVDA) ranked among its weakest performers as all of the "Magnificent Seven" stocks declined. Caution ahead of a speech from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Friday, uncertainty about policy changes from the Trump administration, and worries about returns from AI spending have all added to pressures on the sector. However, some Wall Street analysts said they don't expect that to last long. "While some near-term tech volatility is not surprising given the run-up in valuations, we advise investors against becoming overly defensive," UBS said Wednesday. "While we think some caution may be warranted in the more cyclical parts of tech, we remain confident in the broader AI sector's long-term growth and resilience. We recommend investors seek balanced exposure across the AI value chain (infrastructure, semis, and applications), with a preference for laggards offering a more attractive risk-reward balance," UBS said. "We view tech sell-offs like yesterday as opportunities," bullish analysts at Wedbush told clients in a note Wednesday, suggesting the slump could be short-lived, and pointed to earnings from AI chipmaker Nvidia next week as a potential positive catalyst. "When Nvidia reports earnings next week on August 27th the tech world and Wall Street will be listening closely," they said, adding that they believe the "tech bull cycle will be well intact at least for another 2-3 years given the trillions being spent on AI."

Jim Cramer Says Reports Of Apple Inc. (AAPL)'s 'Death' Are Overblown
We recently published . Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Giuseppe Costantino/ Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)'s shares have reversed tack recently as the firm appears to have smoothed over its friction with the Trump administration. The firm announced a $100 billion additional investment in the US earlier this month, and the shares have gained 13.8% since then. Cramer discussed Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)'s shares adding 30 dollars to their value in ten days: 'Well we've got a lot of exciting things that people are talking about. About the release perhaps of new AI powered products. Uh, smart home push, including robots. Life like version of Siri, well that would certainly be helpful. Smart speaker with display and home security camera. I don't know, home security is something that people want but the main thing here is that if we get robots and they're not from Musk, they're from Apple, I think we'd be very interested in that. While we acknowledge the potential of AAPL as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an extremely cheap AI stock that is also a major beneficiary of Trump tariffs and onshoring, see our free report on the .

Deere & Company (DE) Just Needs To Be More Optimistic, Asserts Jim Cramer
We recently published . Deere & Company (NYSE:DE) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Deere & Company (NYSE:DE) is an agricultural and construction equipment company. Cramer has discussed the firm several times on his morning show in 2025. Most of his remarks have revolved around Deere & Company (NYSE:DE)'s exposure to AI data center construction activity in the US and fresh legislation, both of which can act as tailwinds for the firm. The firm's shares dipped by 6.8% in August after it narrowed its full-year outlook. Cramer discussed Deere & Company (NYSE:DE) in the context of AgCo: 'I do think that Deere, I thought that might be a bounce back. Because we had AgCo on last night. And AgCo was being very, very positive. . .but AgCo's not as US-centric. It is a mystery to me that Deere's down this much given the fact that inventories don't seem to be a problem. And given the fact that AgCo, its principle competitor, just is crushing it, crushing. mark smith nsb/ Here are the CNBC TV host's previous comments about Deere & Company (NYSE:DE): 'In May of last year, I told you that Deere was finally taking control of its own destiny, even if that might… take some time to play out. And in retrospect, that was a good call… Funny thing about Deere, while the stock's roared over the past 12 months, the company hasn't been putting up particularly good numbers… But even though the numbers have been hideous in absolute terms, Deere's results have consistently come in better than expected. How's it possible? Simple. This company is hostage to the agriculture market, which means their business rise[s] and falls based on factors that they've got, let's say, no control over… While we acknowledge the potential of DE as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
