Amazon started its food delivery service in India in May 2020.

"We don't take these decisions lightly. We are discontinuing these programmes in a phased manner to take care of current customers and partners," the spokesperson added.

The company had kicked off Amazon Food in Bengaluru.

On Thursday, Amazon had said that it is shutting down its edtech offering called Amazon Academy's operations in India starting August 2023, and will refund the full fee to those who enrolled in the current academic batch.
