Amazon plans to fully "Amazonify" Whole Foods by flooding shelves with cheap, mass-produced junk food like Doritos, Pepsi, and Kraft singles to chase Walmart shoppers and low income customers, while quietly phasing out premium organic lines to cut costs and line their pockets. thousands of long-time store managers and grocery/front end staff will face massive layoffs as robots take over stocking (the same robots they have in warehouses right now) and checkout duties, because this year Amazon is plotting to rebrand select locations as hybrid Amazon Fresh warehouses stocked mostly with private-label basics and call it "Fresh by Whole Foods Market"

They had scan robots a few years ago that didn't work out.... So I'm skeptical about this..m
I don’t think robots will be doing the stocking sounds far fetched.
