Amazon has announced the addition of five new Amazon Fresh stores, three of which have already opened. Those additions mean Amazon has more than doubled the Amazon Fresh supermarket banner’s location count versus a year ago. The company now has 33 locations nation-wide.
The company recently unveiled plans for three new Amazon Fresh stores in northern Virginia. A 45,000-square-foot store opened in Manassas on June 9, and a 38,000-square-foot location in Lorton is set to open its doors on June 23. Another Amazon Fresh is slated to open in Arlington “in the coming weeks,” Amazon said.
Also on June 9, Amazon launched an Amazon Fresh store in North Riverside, Ill., marking its eighth store in Illinois. The company opened its 15th California location under the banner in early June in Huntington Beach. Both of those stores also offer Just Walk Out functionality.
Amazon opened the first Amazon Fresh store in Woodland Hills, California in late August 2020, and in less than two years has expanded into 30 stores, with the opening of a store in Murrieta, Calif., in May.
The company has also announced plans for Amazon Fresh stores in the New York City area and future stores in Paramus, N.J., and Oceanside, N.Y. The company did not provide opening dates or further details about the planned Oceanside and Paramus stores but said both locations will offer Just Walk Out service.
