Here are all the changes Amazon is making to Whole Foods

Instead of laying off employees, Whole Foods says it will hire more workers to implement the changes.

You can have your Amazon.com orders delivered to a secure location inside certain Whole Foods stores until it's time to pick them up. Customers can also use lockers to return Amazon items.

"Whole Foods also is centralizing much of its decision-making regarding the assortment of products across the country," the Wall Street Journal reported. "Instead of allowing brands to frequently pitch their products to individual stores or regions, Whole Foods executives in its Austin, Texas headquarters will choose a higher percentage of the items stores carry."

Whole Foods locations will no longer allow brand representatives to visit stores to promote products or check up on how things are stocked and displayed, the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.

Soon after Amazon's $13.7 billion acquisition of Whole Foods went through, more than a thousand Whole Foods items were added to Amazon.com. Whole Foods goods are available on Amazon.com, AmazonFresh, Prime Pantry, and Prime Now.

Currently, to purchase many of the Whole Foods items you need to have an AmazonFresh membership. AmazonFresh is Amazon's grocery delivery service and costs Prime members an additional $14.99 per month.

Whole Foods announced that Amazon Prime will replace Whole Foods' current loyalty program.

According to Amazon, the popular voice-controlled speaker system will be available at select Whole Foods locations. A Brooklyn location advertised the Amazon Echo as the "pick of the season" the day the acquisition completed.

The day the acquisition went through, prices of many Whole Foods staples immediately dropped. Some price tags decreased by up to 40%.

An identical basket of items from a Whole Foods location in Brooklyn went from $97.76 pre-acquisition to $75.85 post-acquisition.
