On June 30 (parts of) London joined (parts of) Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Dallas, Miami and New York as offering Amazon's one-hour delivery service.
About 10,000 products for specific delivery zones are served out of Amazon's existing East London Fulfillment Center and network of outsourced delivery firms. Expansion of the one-hour service to most of London and other cities in Southeast England is likely when Amazon's new Dunstable FC opens late this summer.
According to MarketWatch, Amazon, "is developing a mobile application that would pay ordinary people, rather than carriers such as United Parcel Service Inc. to drop off packages en route to other destinations." (Uberization of delivery?)
