Ahead of Prime Day 2025, Amazon India has announced the launch of 5 new fulfilment centres (FCs), adding to its robust operations network in India. The expansion brings the very first Amazon FCs in Indore, Bhubaneshwar, Kochi and Rajpura and another one in Delhi-NCR. With over 1.8 million cubic feet of combined storage space, these FCs will lead to faster delivery of customer orders while also creating thousands of local job opportunities in the region.
The new 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 announcement comes as part of Amazon’s goal to invest over $233 million in India in 2025.
Building India’s fastest, most-reliable logistics network
The expansion will enable sellers to better serve customers by choosing an FC closer to them to ensure faster delivery to customers. The new FCs will also help support the region’s economic growth by creating new jobs, including a variety of roles in Amazon's operations network, including full-time and part-time options.
All the 5 FCs are ready and operational ahead of the upcoming Prime Day (being held on July 12-14) and have a combined capacity of over 1.8 million cu. feet, equivalent to about 10 cricket grounds.
"We are focused on building and operating India's fastest, safest, and most reliable logistics network that delivers to customers across the country. These five new fulfilment centres represent a significant investment in our operations infrastructure and demonstrate our commitment to our customers and sellers across India," says Abhinav Singh, VP Operations India & Australia.
"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," adds Abhinav.
Amazon’s investment goal for India
Amazon recently announced an additional $233 million (₹2000 crore) in investment as part of its commitment to building 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 programs, 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.
Recently Amazon announced that it delivered at its fastest speeds ever for Prime members in 2024 and delivered more than 41 crore items the same day or next day, getting customers what they need, when they need it. It’s not just time that customers are saving, Prime members also saved on average of over ₹3,300 on fast, free deliveries last year—more than two times the cost of an annual Prime membership.
