在零售策略方面,亞馬遜也進一步加深電商與實體雜貨業務的整合。公司目前正在美國賓夕法尼亞州 Plymouth Meeting 的 Whole Foods Market 門市內,測試店內微型履單中心(micro-fulfillment center),藉此提升訂單處理速度並降低最後一哩配送成本。此舉顯示亞馬遜正嘗試將其電商物流優勢,全面導入生鮮與雜貨零售場景。

同時,亞馬遜也持續擴大其雜貨配送服務,利用既有物流網絡,將可即時配送的生鮮商品服務擴展至超過 1,000 個城市與城鎮。對消費者而言,這提升了便利性;但從永續角度來看,冷藏運輸與即時配送的碳排管理,將成為亞馬遜未來必須正面回應的關鍵課題。

ENGLISH

In parallel, Amazon is expanding grocery delivery options by using its logistics network to extend same-day delivery for perishable goods to more than 1,000 cities and towns. While this enhances convenience for consumers, it also increases the importance of managing emissions associated with refrigerated transport and rapid fulfillment.

未來展望

Future Outlook
中文

整體而言,亞馬遜正以 AI 建築管理、門市自動化與物流整合為核心,重塑其雜貨業務模式。然而,在排放總量仍呈上升趨勢的情況下,外界將持續關注這些效率與科技投資,是否能在中長期真正轉化為可量化的減碳成果,而不僅是營運優化工具。

ENGLISH

Overall, Amazon’s strategy combines AI-enabled building management, in-store automation, and logistics integration to scale its grocery operations. As emissions continue to trend upward, stakeholders will be watching closely to see whether these technological and efficiency investments translate into measurable, long-term emissions reductions rather than purely operational gains.
