How Amazon’s Perishables Expansion Is Reshaping Grocery Shopping
Why it matters
Amazon’s growing role in perishables is changing how CPG brands compete for shoppers, category growth and share across Amazon.
Identify where growth is accelerating
Fresh categories including seafood, dairy, meat, produce, bakery and frozen foods are growing considerably faster than traditional grocery and nonfood categories on Amazon.
Evaluate the role of price in driving adoption
Growth across several fresh categories has coincided with substantial price reductions, making price competitiveness an important consideration for brands and retailers.
Understand the value of perishables shoppers
Perishables buyers spend more than $1,300 annually above the average Amazon shopper and shop Amazon nearly 30 additional times per year.
CPG leaders who understand these shifts early gain a competitive edge.
