Since the beginning of this year, Amazon said it decreased the distance between its delivery sites and customers by 15%, which means that delivery drivers, as well as the company's vendors and selling partners, can reach customers more efficiently — and thereby lowering Amazon's costs.Amazon ramped up its number of same-day deliveries
for US prime customers around cities like Los Angeles, Phoenix, and San Francisco, according to its fourth-quarter earnings report.
