據外媒報道,亞馬遜公司(Amazon.com)正試圖迅速擴展一項送餐服務,它成立了一個名為“亞馬遜餐館”(Amazon Restaurants)的新事業部并正在招聘員工。
據報道,根據有關資料,亞馬遜正在為其致力于西雅圖和紐約的餐館的新事業部增加人手,但是亞馬遜拒絕發表評論。
以賣書和電子產品聞名的亞馬遜已經開始將業務轉移到服務業,讓客戶能夠預訂從水管工到度假的各種服務。
該在線零售商之前就已涉足餐點外賣,但最近它專門成立了一個叫“亞馬遜餐館”的新部門,意味著它可能正準備進入日益擁擠的送餐市場,而且與成熟的業者如GrubHub競爭。
部分原文報道如下:

Amazon, which declined to comment on Friday, is best known as a place to buy millions of products including books and electronics. It has increasingly moved into services, offering customers the ability to book everything from plumbers to local getaways.
