Amazon expanding same-day delivery hub
Amazon expects to have 1,000 same-day delivery hubs up and running by 2031. The expansion strategy, known internally as Project Mercury, will increase the reach of its rapid-delivery network, according to a Seeking Alpha report. Amazon’s same-day fulfillment footprint is currently about 85, according to a Business Insider report, citing internal planning documents.
Amazon locates same-day sites roughly a 90-minute drive from customers. The expansion project aims to place those facilities within a 10-mile straight-line radius of 80% of US Prime subscribers by 2031
“That said, it’s no secret that we’re focused on delivering faster for customers and the expansion of our same-day delivery network is playing a big role in that,” an Amazon spokesperson told Business Insider. “We continue to invest in fast delivery speed and convenience alongside wide selection and everyday low prices.”
