It offered same-day delivery to Amazon Prime subscribers.
That pressured other retailers to speed up getting products from their warehouses to your front door.
Since then, companies that specialize in moving freight fast have become integral to the retail and grocery sectors.
The logistics market — moving goods from a starting point (i.e., a warehouse) to your house — has grown consistently since 2010:
