Amazon delivery delays get stretched to a month
March 23, 2020
Many deliveries that Amazon.com was making in one or two days before the coronavirus outbreak hit the U.S. are now taking five days or as long as a month. “To serve our customers in need while also helping to ensure the safety of our associates, we’ve changed our logistics, transportation, supply chain, purchasing, and third-party seller processes to prioritize stocking and delivering items that are a higher priority for our customers,” an Amazon spokesperson said in a statement.
