) has quietly opened a series of small warehouses closer to big U.S. cities in a move to shave hours off delivery times, the company told Reuters.
The initiative underscores the company’s aim to stay quick in online retail, outdoing competitors’ free two-day delivery offers so shoppers remain loyal to Amazon’s shipping and media-streaming club Prime, which costs $119 per year in the United States. “The smaller selection enables us to put these types of facilities much closer to customers,” he said. Additional items - up to 3 million - will pass through the facilities on their way to same-day customers.
The company declined to comment on the facilities’ cost. Amazon, once famous for spending away profit, often cites warehouse build-outs as one of its biggest areas of investment.
