Amazon is hoping for good luck with its soon-to-open 13th Amazon Fresh brick-and-mortar grocery store.
The omnichannel retail giant is opening its first Amazon Fresh location on the East Coast, in Franconia, Virginia, on Thursday, May 27. The approximately 30,000-sq.-ft. store will serve the greater Washington, D.C., area.
Amazon Fresh stores are designed from the ground up to offer a seamless shopping experience, with extra perks for members of the Amazon Prime paid loyalty program. Currently, Amazon operates eight other Amazon Fresh stores in California, as well as four locations in Illinois. In addition, the retailer is currently hiring for two new Amazon Fresh stores that will open in King County, Wash.
