BENSALEM TOWNSHIP, PA — The much-anticipated Amazon Fresh supermarket is shutting its doors in the near future as the company has announced it will exist as an online brand.
Amazon said Tuesday it is closing its Fresh and cashierless Go stores in Pennsylvania and nationwide, including two others in Bucks County in Oxford Valley and Warrington.
Some closed Fresh and Go stores will be converted to Whole Foods Markets, the company said. It plans to open 100 new stores over the next few years.
The company did not clarify at this point which of the Fresh locations could become Whole Foods stores.
The 42,000-square-foot store at 1837 Street Road opened in August 2024. Township officials and residents had doubts the Amazon Fresh store would ever open.
The store — like others in Lower Bucks and nearby Montgomery County — was supposed to open in the space where Kmart once ruled on Street Road sometime the year before.
The company had struggled to get the stores open due to the economy. At one point, Mayor Joseph DiGirolamo called the vacant store an “eyesore.”
Other Amazon Fresh stores in Pennsylvania are located in Broomall, Willow Grove, and Philadelphia.
Amazon launched its grocery business two decades ago and acquired Whole Foods in 2017 for $13.7 billion. The company said its grocery business accounts for more than $150 billion in gross sales annually.
