Amazon India has announced the launch of a new fulfillment centre (FC), the largest in West Bengal, with a storage capacity of 1.2 million cu ft.
It has also tripled the storage capacity of an existing specialised fulfillment centre for large appliances and furniture to more than 6,00,000 cu ft.
The expansion marks a significant increase in Amazon India’s infrastructure in the state, which will now offer a storage capacity of more than 3.4 million cu ft across five fulfillment centres. The expansion in West Bengal happens to be part of the company’s plans announced in July 2020 to add 10 new FCs and expand seven existing sites across India.
