Tyson’s Amazon deal aims to boost e-commerce options

A program that offers Tyson Foods the opportunity to provide fresh proteins to an expanding online grocery program is part of a strategy to grow Tyson’s “non-store retail” presence, President and CEO Donnie Smith told analysts this week.

Smith reaffirmed Tyson’s plan to provide fresh proteins to the Amazon Fresh program, which already delivers grocery store items like meat and prepared foods in four markets: Seattle, New York, Los Angeles and Philadelphia. Tyson is expected to launch a line of “chef-inspired meal kits and premium proteins” called for home delivery by Amazon Fresh starting this fall, Smith confirmed. He did not provide additional details on the types of proteins that will be featured.
