Amazon marks one year of next-day delivery on Oahu

Sep 30, 2026

Amazon's faster shipping on Oahu has now run a full year, and the company marked it with a food donation — good news for Hawaii families short on groceries.

  • Amazon workers and guests packed boxes of food with the Hawaii Foodbank for its school pantry program.
  • The two have an ongoing partnership that includes money and help with shipping and logistics.
  • The Foodbank says 40% of local kids do not get enough to eat.
  • Faster delivery to the islands is a rare logistics win for a state where shipping is slow and costly.

Outlook: Expect Amazon to keep leaning on the Foodbank partnership as it builds out its Hawaii delivery network.
