Answer 1

Amazon Fresh which aims to deliver daily essentials to the customers at their order or subscription is a part of Amazon which was brought in to compete with many competitors with same business. This is to sustain in the market where essentials are being delivered at the door step and this might effect retailers and other online businesses. There are many competitors most of whom are local vendors who are doing same kind of business online. Many other startups are being intoduced some with much innovative ideas like delivering every essential ordered within two others like Amazon Fresh. This made the company move forward in the competition. People now a days prefer tohave their items delivered and at shorter time periods. They are even ready to pay delivery charges at the comfort of not needing to step out for grocery stores and stand in large queues. They pay more in exchange for the need to go out for groceries and other essentials. For such businesses customer needs, availability of stock and proper storage facilities along with good and efficient team to delivery goods on time are the forces that are needed to drive them.
