Amazon Now brings 10-minute delivery to Mumbai following 25% monthly growth in Bengaluru and Delhi, with 100+ micro-fulfilment centres already operational. Nationwide expansion plans on as customer demand continues to grow rapidly.
Amazon has expanded its 10-minute delivery service to Mumbai, following strong customer response in Bengaluru and Delhi. Amazon Now lets customers purchase thousands of everyday essentials—from groceries and personal care items to electronic accessories and festive supplies—that will be delivered within minutes. To support this rapid service, the company has opened more than 100 micro-fulfilment centres across the three cities, with plans to add hundreds more by year-end as order volumes continue to grow at 25% month-on-month.
Robust operations infrastructure driving Amazon Now
Talking about the milestone, Samir Kumar, VP and Country Manager, Amazon India, says, “We launched Amazon Now in Bengaluru earlier this year, delivering essentials in just 10 minutes. The response has exceeded our most optimistic expectations, with daily orders growing at 25% month over month and Prime members tripling their shopping frequency after they begin using Amazon Now.”
He adds, “Driven by this success, we’ve expanded to over 100 micro-fulfilment centers and plan to add hundreds more across Bengaluru, Delhi and Mumbai. With our robust operations infrastructure, we’re enabling faster, more convenient shopping across a vast selection as we head into the festive season – delivering essentials in minutes, groceries and over 40,000 items within hours, and millions more the same or next day.”
Here’s what powers Amazon Now
Amazon Now is powered by strategically located micro-fulfilment centers – compact, technology-enabled facilities designed exclusively for ultra-fast deliveries. They are strategically positioned near customer neighbourhoods to maximise delivery efficiency. Amazon Now’s micro-fulfilment centers use advanced inventory systems that optimise product placement based on hyperlocal demand patterns, creating a seamless experience from order to delivery within minutes.
Amazon’s ultra-fast delivery service combines the wide selection of daily essentials from sellers with the company’s high standards of safety, transparency and reliability. Amazon Now will continue expanding to more neighbourhoods in Bengaluru, Delhi, and Mumbai, with plans to launch in other cities in the coming months.
