PREIT installs Amazon lockers at 15 malls
PREIT unveiled Amazon lockers at 15 of its mall locations on the East coast, making it one of the first mall owners to engage in this most physical of online-offline integrations.
Amazon shoppers who choose the locker option when checking out are notified when their packages have been delivered and can go to the locker location to pick them up. Consumers gain an added convenience and mall tenants get Web shoppers in their stores.
“To team up with Amazon to offer a first-of-its-kind, multi-location Amazon Locker installation at some of our malls is a great milestone,” said PREIT CEO Joseph Coradino. “We fully embrace the growing intersection of physical and digital retail, and through this program, are expanding our shopper base to welcome new consumers to our properties.”
Amazon has been rolling out its locker program in varied outlets the last few weeks. Other places they’ve popped up include Portland Plaid Pantry stores in Oregon and Shoppers Food Stores in Maryland.
