Amazon Closing “Fresh and Go” Locations in Pennsylvania & Beyond

Amazon said Tuesday it is closing its Fresh and cashierless Go stores in Pennsylvania and nationwide, although Amazon Fresh will continue to exist as an online brand.

There are Amazon Fresh stores located  in Bensalem,  Oxford Valley, Warrington, and in nearby Willow Grove (Montgomery County), and Philadelphia.

“While we’ve seen encouraging signals in our Amazon-branded physical grocery stores, we haven’t yet created a truly distinctive customer experience with the right economic model needed for large-scale expansion,” an Amazon spokesperson said.

Amazon Fresh locations opened in Bensalem and Langhorne (Oxford Valley) in late 2o22.

Several Amazon Fresh locations  will be converted to Whole Foods Markets, the company said. Company officials, however  did which of the Fresh locations could become Whole Foods stores.

Customers can continue to shop Amazon Fresh online in available areas for fast and convenient delivery. We’re grateful to our team members for their many contributions over the years and are working whenever possible to help them find roles elsewhere in Amazon, including across our vast operations network, as we make this transition, a company spokesperson said.
