Amazon.com Inc. has started offering delivery of fresh produce in the Seattle area.
Amazon Fresh offers next-day delivery of thousands of produce items, the Seattle-based company said on its website.
Amazon in May 2006 began selling 15,000 nonperishable grocery items such as rice, diapers and detergent in bulk. Adding product categories such as jewelry and automotive parts allowed it to boost revenue by 26% last year.
