Amazon.in has opened its largest fulfilment centre (FC) spread over
200,000 square feet with more than 800,000 cubic feet of storage space
in Sonipat near the national capital, a company statement said here on
Thursday.
This fulfilment centre is in line with the company's planned
investments of six new FCs in India. The combined storage capacity
available to sellers on Amazon.in will increase 1.5 times to 7.5 million
cubic feet by the end of this year, the statement said.
"It will enable thousands of small & medium businesses to save
money by replacing their upfront capital expense with low variable cost
and pay only for the storage space they use and the orders that we
fulfil. Our fulfilment centres play a significant role in the
development of an inclusive e-commerce economy with benefits accruing
across the ecosystem," said Akhil Saxena, Vice President, India Customer
Fulfilment, Amazon India.
"Amazon India's latest investment with the launch of their largest
fulfilment centre signifies the growing interest of large global
enterprises in Haryana," said Devender Singh, Principal Secretary,
Industries and IT Department, Haryana.
"The FC will enable thousands of small & medium businesses
selling locally created products such as apparels, handlooms &
handicraft to service customers seamlessly across the country and the
globe," Singh added.
