Amazon plans to open actual convenience stores for its Amazon Fresh customers990 Archives according to a report in theWall Street Journal.
The stores will sell perishable foods like milk, meat and produce and serve as a platform to order same-day delivery of longer-lasting goods, the Journal reported.
An Amazon spokesperson told Mashable that the company doesn't comment on rumors or speculation.
Amazon Fresh allows customers to sign up for same-day grocery delivery at set times. The service for Prime members, available in select markets, requires a $15 monthly fee on top of a $99 annual Prime membership.
The brick-and-mortar stores will offer curbside pickup for online orders. The company is also reportedly introducing drive-in locations where groceries would be delivered to the car.

The plan, reportedly called Project Como internally, is yet another move to turn Amazon's online dominance into real-life ubiquity.
Groceries wouldn't be Amazon's first foray into the brick and mortar. The tech giant opened a bookstore in Seattle last year and has more on the way. According to the Journal, Amazon is considering other kinds of brick-and-mortar stores. One of the options is a store for its consumer devices like the Amazon Echo.
