Amazon reportedly is rolling out a grocery delivery service that could allow it to expand into a mostly untapped e-commerce market. The company already runs AmazonFresh, a grocery service that delivers food and home products to several Seattle neighborhoods. A similar service reportedly will launch later this month in Los Angeles, and by the end of the year in San Francisco. If the service is a hit in those cities, AmazonFresh could roll into 20 more metropolitan areas — possibly including some outside of the U.S. — in 2014.
