Amazon is discontinuing its same-day delivery program, Amazon Today, which allowed customers to order from local retailers. The program will continue until January 24, with most products available through other delivery methods. Approximately 175 employees will be affected, but most will transition to other roles within the company. This decision aims to streamline Amazon’s offerings due to overlaps with other delivery services. Despite this closure, Amazon plans to expand its fast shipping capabilities and has reported significant success in delivering items quickly to Prime members.
