POWAY, Calif. — A new Amazon Fresh store is open in Poway. It is the first one in San Diego County.
At the new store, shoppers will find produce, meat and seafood, as well as prepared foods. There is a dedicated department offering a selection of crackers, cheeses and charcuterie, as well as grab & go sandwiches, salads, wraps and snack boxes.
Shoppers don’t have to be Amazon Prime members to shop but it does help to unlock discounts.
There are five ways to checkout - traditional, self-checkout, delivery, pickup and dash carts. A dash cart allows customers to scan items on their cart and then check out using their Amazon account.
Deron Thompson, the Regional Manager, said their team is proud to continue expanding in Southern California. The business planned to donate surplus food from the Amazon Fresh store to Feeding San Diego.
“We’re excited for customers to see our wide selection of national brands, high-quality produce, and curated array of their favorite local items and fresh-prepared meals. Our team is proud to continue expanding in Southern California and build new relationships with our customers and important local organizations in the area like Feeding San Diego,” said Thompson.
The store is located at 14837 Pomerado Road in Poway. Doors open daily at 8:00 a.m. and they close at 10:00 p.m.
