Amazon’s new push into the Mid-Atlantic region announced today will result in the company controlling over 500 grocery stores nationwide, including Amazon-owned Whole Foods stores. A recent report confirmed that Amazon is already testing cashierless technology at its Amazon Fresh grocery stores, further threatening the jobs of America's 16 million retail workers.
