When online shopping was first introduced, consumers jumped at the opportunity to make purchases that would be delivered straight to their door without ever leaving the comfort of their home.

The expansion of their fast delivery options, from two-day to two-hour has allowed them to offer perishable grocery products that raises concerns for an industry that was otherwise safe from the competition of e-Commerce. Amazon and other online retailers aren't showing signs of slowing down any time soon, and the opportunities for e-Commerce's future are seemingly endless.
