Amazon was ranked as the US’ top grocer last year for the second year running, in a survey conducted by the Dunnhumby Retailer Preference Index.
The index is a nationwide study of the roughly $1 trillion US grocery market.
Amazon beat Walmart, Aldi, CostCo and Trader Joe’s to hold on the top spot.
The ecommerce giant’s Amazon Fresh division, which in the UK is its network of grocery stores, came in fifth spot, despite operating mainly as a grocery delivery subsidiary in the US.
“The pandemic has massively accelerated changes in how customers buy their groceries, and their behaviors are continuing to evolve,” Dunnhumby president of North America Grant Steadman said in a statement.
