Amazon has been known to deliver great service when it comes to online shopping, with customers getting orders in a few days, and some on the same day. Now, the tech giant has cooked up another awesome service to make its customer's lives easier - the Prime Now one-hour restaurant delivery system, NRN reports.
Cleverly tag-lined "SKIP THE TRIP. ONE-HOUR DELIVERY," here's what you need to know about Prime Now, Amazon's one-hour restaurant delivery system:
The largest online retailer in the United States made the Prime Now announcement Tuesday, saying that Seattle is the first city where the one-hour restaurant delivery service is being tested as part of the Prime Now app delivery-in-hours app, which had been launched the previous month.
Amazon now joins Seattle's increasingly crowded market. The one-hour restaurant delivery service is also reportedly poses a big competition for Peach, a growing startup created by Amazon's former employees. Peach's main service is delivery of pre-set lunches to large office buildings daily. Peach was able to raise $8 million last month from Madrona Venture Group and Vulcan Capital, according to The Seattle Times.
