Amazon rolls out 1-hour and 2-hour delivery to 2,000 US cities
Eric Pong has reported that Amazon has expanded 1-hour and 2-hour delivery to 2,000 cities across the US. Pong frames the development as a structural rewiring of ecommerce logistics: the network operates entirely outside the traditional 3PL/fulfilment industry, and as same-day delivery becomes the baseline expectation for Prime members, the competitive threshold for non-Amazon fulfilment continues to rise.
Why it matters for advertisers
For you, this means that brands assessing multi-channel fulfilment strategies should factor the growing consumer expectation gap between Amazon's delivery speed and that of alternative channels into their channel prioritisation decisions.
