Westport is not alone in its tracking troubles.

That appears the stock answer outlets around the country have heard when inquiring about Amazon worksites going dark. “We don’t comment on our future roadmap.” “Thanks for reaching out,” Jessica Martin of Amazon public relations wrote. The Westport Journal reached out to the owner of the Post Plaza shopping center for an update last week, but didn’t hear back.Īmazon did get back, but provided no insight. Months have passed and the Amazon Fresh sign, which had a difficult time getting town approval, never was hoisted over the modernistic entrance. Prior to the Thursday opening of Amazon Fresh in Morton Grove, the only grocery store in the village was Aldi on Golf Road.And then the heavy machinery and workers disappeared. The company is also preparing for the opening of two additional stores: one in North Riverside and a second store in Naperville on Odgen Avenue, Hayes said. Other Amazon stores in the Chicago area are located in Schaumburg, Naperville, Bloomingdale and Oak Lawn. Items ordered from can also be returned to the store, and lockers are available for Amazon customers looking for a secure place to have their orders delivered.Īmazon Fresh in Westmont, which also features Just Check Out technology, opened Nov.

Delivery is free for Amazon Prime members, Hayes said. Fresh meat and fish, prepared foods and baked goods are also available for purchase.Ĭustomers can order ahead of time and pick up their groceries curbside or have them delivered. The store features brands only found in Amazon Fresh markets, like Aplenty and Fresh, as well as local and national brands sold in other grocery stores.
