Amazon will reportedly merge its pharmacy operations and some grocery-delivery services


Amazon is working to merge its online pharmacy and grocery services after years of buying various companies.

Amazon isn’t a stranger to acquiring various companies and services, but it’s finally taking steps to streamline its many acquisitions, as reported by The Information. PillPack is a service that sends customers medication packs containing the required pills for a single day’s consumption, while Amazon Pharmacy is geared towards general purchases. PillPack previously had its own facilities, and the change will make same-day deliveries in 20 new cities possible, bringing the total available locations close to 30 from less than 10 right now.
