Amazon expands Amazon Now to 300+ cities, leans on Prime pricing to counter quick commerce
Amazon is countering Blinkit, Zepto and Swiggy Instamart in India's $11-billion quick-commerce market via tiered Prime pricing and Amazon Now's expansion to 300+ cities, backed by 100 Urban Fulfilment Centres and sub-30-minute delivery of 20,000-30,000 products.
Amazon counters quick-commerce rivals in India via tiered Prime pricing and Amazon Now expansion to 300+ cities with 100 Urban Fulfilment Centres, targeting sub-30-minute deliveries amid competition from Blinkit, Zepto and Swiggy Instamart.
Why this matters
Builds on Amazon's $35B India investment and Amazon Now's earlier 100-city scale-up, while a decade of Prime growth in Tier 2/3 cities underpins the tiered pricing push against quick-commerce players.
