AMAZON ON-TIME DELIVERY SLIP REPORTED

(Reuters) - On-time delivery rates fell for Amazon.com Inc van drivers in the latest week, consulting firm ShipMatrix said on Wednesday, but the online retailer said its performance was “far better than what’s being reported” even as it dealt with record Cyber Monday orders and regional winter storms.
Amazon van drivers delivered 93.7% of U.S. packages on time during the week ending Dec. 7, down from 98.2% during the prior week that included Thanksgiving, ShipMatrix said.
