Amazon and Winn-Dixie have teamed up to launch a grocery delivery service in Jacksonville and Orlando, enhancing the convenience of grocery shopping for local residents. This service became available on September 25, allowing customers to order groceries directly from Winn-Dixie through Amazon.com or the Amazon app.
This partnership marks Amazon’s first grocery collaboration in Florida. The initiative aims to provide shoppers with more options, aligning with the growing demand for convenience in grocery shopping. Adam Kirk from Winn-Dixie underscored the significance of this collaboration, emphasizing its potential to make affordable groceries more accessible to households through Amazon’s efficient delivery system.
Delivery Area and Benefits
The grocery delivery service is available in several towns, including Atlantic Beach, Kissimmee, Ponte Vedra, Windermere, and Winter Park. For a limited time, customers can enjoy free delivery on orders over $25, a benefit that applies even to individuals who are not Amazon Prime members. Additionally, Winn-Dixie Rewards members can earn points on their Amazon orders and redeem those points in stores.
Customers can access over 16,000 grocery items from Winn-Dixie, along with Amazon’s standard selection of grocery and household goods. Orders over $25 qualify for free two-hour delivery, further enhancing the shopping experience and streamlining the grocery procurement process.
Previous Initiatives and Future Expansion
The collaboration follows the introduction of Amazon Return Kiosks in 20 Winn-Dixie stores in Jacksonville, which allow customers to drop off returns without needing a box or label. The service launches with limited locations in the Jacksonville metro area, although there are potential plans for expansion into additional areas.
The grocery market landscape has become increasingly competitive, with major players like Publix, Walmart, and Instacart also active in the region. This partnership reflects a shift in consumer shopping behavior, as online grocery shopping has continued to thrive, especially following the pandemic. Furthermore, Amazon is set to expand its grocery delivery services to more than 2,300 municipalities nationwide by the end of the year.
