Amazon Prime Pantry

Amazon Prime Pantry (or just Amazon Pantry) was a service of Amazon.com available only to Amazon Prime members that packaged everyday (non-bulk) non-perishable grocery store items into a single box for delivery for a flat fee. The service was available in the United States, Austria, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Amazon discontinued the program in different locations on different dates, making the items formerly found in Prime Pantry available for purchase in the main Amazon store.
Service
The service was available only to customers with Amazon Prime membership to order up to 45 pounds in weight or up to 4 cubic feet of dry goods and non-perishable groceries for a flat delivery fee, although initially in the US there had been no delivery charge.
An ever-changing but limited variety of products was offered, but the range actually decreased from when the service was first launched. While selecting items within the Prime Pantry program, each item listed the percentage of space it will take up inside the delivery box. A running total showed how full this box is. The delivery fee remained the same regardless of the filling percentage.
In the United Kingdom, Amazon signed a deal with the British supermarket chain Morrisons to provide supplies for Pantry and Fresh.
Delivery was within a set time period. An email alerted customers of their delivery date.
In India, Pantry was made available in three cities before being expanded to 10,000 PIN codes prior to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in India.
