AmazonFresh Pickup, currently open only to employees, allows users enrolled in its Prime service, to drive in and pick up groceries from the company's grocery store in Seattle, which it opened last year.

Amazon Prime members can place the order online and choose a time for the pick up, the company said on Tuesday. The company will keep the order bagged.
