They've already said they're putting in lockers and would be adding select Amazon products (Kindles? Tablets? Echos?) over time. Likewise Whole Foods products will be available through Amazon.
And, of course, since Whole foods didn't have a loyalty program, they'll use Prime. Which means more subscribers and more users for Kindle First and Prime reading.
Prime touches everything.
