OAK LAWN, IL — The long awaited Amazon Fresh store will throw open its doors for in-person shopping at 7 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 11. The Oak Lawn location is the third Amazon Fresh store to open in Illinois, offering a low-priced grocery store in the community.
The Oak Lawn store is opening on the site of the former Kmart at 4031 W. 95th St., Oak Lawn. It will occupy 35,000 square feet. Hours will be 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, with special service between 7 and 8 a.m. for customers who are 60 years and older or those with disabilities who are at high risk during the pandemic.
"The Village of Oak Lawn is thrilled to welcome Amazon Fresh as the main anchor at the newly redeveloped Oak Lawn Commons," said Oak Lawn Mayor Sandra Bury. "The store brings hundreds of much-needed jobs, high-quality food, low prices and innovative convenience features. We are excited for the energy and excitement it will bring to this gateway into Oak Lawn."
Just in time for Valentine's Day, customers will find everything they need for their special someone including a double dozen roses for $19.99, and opening deals like $16.99/lb. USDA Prime rib eye steak, $19.99/lb. lobster tail, $2.89 for Fresh Brand Valentine's Day mini cupcakes, and more.
The company is also promoting its 365 by Whole Foods Market organics brand, along with national brands like Coca-Cola and Kraft Mac and Cheese; local brands like Turano Baking Company, Oberweiss Dairy, and Gino's East frozen pizza; regional favorites like Duke's Mayo, Ellenos Yogurt and Boston Chowda; and new Amazon exclusive brands like Fresh and Cursive.
"We're proud to support the community by creating hundreds of high-quality local jobs and by donating surplus food from the Amazon Fresh store to local food banks," the Seattle-based company said in a news release. "To date we have already donated over 20,000 pounds of food (equivalent to nearly 20,000 meals) from the Oak Lawn store."
Shoppers at Amazon Fresh locations can shop in-store or online with free, same-day delivery and pick-up available for Amazon Prime members. Try the Amazon Dash Cart, and skip the checkout line. Find items in store using Alexa Shopping List (on the Amazon app) or a blue Alexa kiosk. Free in-store pick-ups and returns of Amazon packages are also available.
The company said it will adhere to COVID-19 safety guidelines and precautions by requiring face coverings and daily temperature checks for all employees and vendors entering the store. Face coverings will also be required of all customers entering the store, with free, disposable face masks available. The store will also be operating at 50 percent capacity at all times, according to the release.
