Amazon Expands Online Grocery Shopping in the UK

It's one thing to shake up an old-fashioned business like the bookselling business, but it's a different matter to compete with Tesco in the field of grocery. The move could impact supermarkets' margins that are already thin.

Cost

Amazon is a retailer with a market-share that is just 10 percent of Tesco's, has launched a new weapon in the fight for Britain's purses. Amazon plans to expand its Fresh service online to cover all major towns and cities in the UK, starting with London and selected Home Counties. This puts it in a slight concurrence with Deliveroo who already offer same-hour delivery of groceries in London. Amazon will also face competition from its own third-party marketplace partners, including Waitrose and Morrisons.

However, Professional Series Ethernet Cable while the introduction of the new service will certainly generate headlines, it is unlikely to have a big impact on UK grocery sales in general. Mintel's latest report on online grocery indicates that more than half of online shoppers in the UK purchase their groceries from supermarket websites. The largest are Ocado and Tesco. The big four aren't likely to engage in a price war with a company as powerful as Amazon, and will likely remain a part of their extensive store estates, click-and-collect services and delivery options that are available across the nation.

Amazon might also decide that partnering with existing supermarket chains is the most effective method to get into the eGrocery market. It already has a variety of these partnerships in place, including a deal with the high-end retailer Waitrose which allows the company to sell its products on the Amazon website and then deliver the items to customers.

It will also allow Amazon to better target a population that is increasingly price-conscious and has less disposable income.

Convenience

The size of the British supermarket market is a further obstacle. It is highly competitive. Amazon will struggle to compete with the big supermarkets such as Tesco and Sainsbury's without cutting prices.
