Amazon.com (AMZN) has launched a U.K.-based grocery Web site, Reuters reports. Apparently, the online grocery biz is booming in the U.K. market, with projected sales of $10.9 billion by 2014. Other players in the market include supermarket chains Tesco, J. Sainsbury and Asda, a Wal-Mart (WMT) unit, and the online grocery specialist Ocado, which plans to go public later this month with an initial valuation of about $1.5 billion.
Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Websites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other websites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
