Amazon’s Just Walk Out tech makes “every other grocery store obsolete,” according to ex-Amazon executive Brittain Ladd.
Ladd described Amazon Fresh’s arrival onto the high street as the grocery sector’s “Pearl Harbour moment”.
The ecommerce giant has just opened a 35,000 square foot bricks-and-mortar location with the Just Walk Out tech capability in the US, something that Ladd believes the major retailers like Walmart would not have envisaged happening for several more years.
“What Amazon has done is made every grocery store in the US, and globally, obsolete,” Ladd said in a LinkedIn post.
