Amazon Aligns Whole Foods with Corporate Benefits, Boosting Collaboration
27 Aug
Summary
- Amazon to fully integrate Whole Foods corporate benefits by 2026
- Whole Foods employees to gain access to Amazon's employee discount program
- Move aims to streamline collaboration across Amazon's grocery divisions

As of August 27, 2025, Amazon.com has announced plans to fully align the benefits for all corporate employees across its grocery units by December 2026. This move aims to integrate the company's grocery businesses, including Whole Foods Market, Amazon Fresh, and Amazon Go, more closely.
Under the new initiative, Whole Foods Market corporate employees will retain their in-store discount perks until the end of 2026, after which they will transition to the same programs and offerings as the rest of Amazon's corporate employees. This will create a consistent experience across the company's grocery teams.
In addition, Whole Foods employees will receive a 10% discount code for Amazon merchandise and gain access to the online portal that offers Amazon's U.S. employees deals on various services, such as phone plans, car insurance, and travel and entertainment. This integration is expected to help Amazon streamline collaboration across its diverse grocery divisions, allowing the company to better compete with major retailers and delivery services in the U.S. market.
