Hyderabad, June 26 (UNI) With Prime Day 2025 starting next month, Amazon today announced the launch of five new Fulfilment Centres (FCs), further adding to its robust operations network in India.
This expansion brings the first Amazon FC to Indore, Bhubaneswar, Kochi and Rajpura.
These new fulfilment centres (FCs) will be operated and managed by strategic partners who are leaders in the logistics industry and will significantly boost delivery speeds for customers across the country, the e-commerce giant said in a release.
The expansion will help sellers better serve customers by placing selection closer to them and create thousands of new work opportunities that will provide economic benefits to the region.
All five FCs are ready and operational ahead of the upcoming Prime Day and have a combined capacity of over 1.8 million cu. feet, which is equivalent to about 10 cricket grounds.
Abhinav Singh, VP Operations India & Australia, said, "These five new fulfilment centres represent a significant investment in our operations infrastructure and demonstrate our commitment to our customers and sellers across India."
"With Prime Day 2025 approaching, Prime members can look forward to even faster deliveries, with lakhs of items available for same-day or next-day delivery."
Last week, Amazon announced an additional Rs 2000 crore in investment as part of its commitment to building and operating India's fastest, safest, and most reliable operations network. The investment will be used to expand and upgrade operations infrastructure, improve associate safety and well-being programmes, and develop new tools and technology for its fulfilment network.
This new investment builds on top of Amazon’s investments in creating an operations network that helps the company deliver to all serviceable pin codes across India.
Earlier this week, Amazon announced that Prime Day 2025 will be a first-ever three-day celebration in India, running from 12:00 AM on July 12 to 11:59 PM on July 14, offering 72 hours of great deals, savings, new launches, and exclusive entertainment, all curated exclusively for Prime members.
For the first time ever in India, Prime members will enjoy 24 extra hours to shop across top brands and small businesses alike, with access to exciting offers from leading partner banks.
Customers can save big with 10% savings on payments using ICICI Bank Credit & Debit Cards, SBI Credit Cards and EMI transactions on ICICI Bank Credit Cards and SBI Credit Cards.
