Seattle, WA, December 4, 2025 — Amazon has announced plans to significantly expand its internal logistics operations throughout the United States. According to company statements and industry reports, enhancements will include additional fulfillment and sortation centers, increased air freight capacity, and amplification of last-mile delivery services through its Amazon Logistics arm.
The move is seen as Amazon’s strategic effort to reduce reliance on external carriers, including the U.S. Postal Service (USPS), and streamline delivery performance for both peak and off-peak seasons. Expansion initiatives will also involve greater use of automation technologies within fulfillment facilities to improve throughput, accuracy, and delivery velocity.
Industry analysts point out that Amazon’s logistics growth reflects broader trends in e-commerce fulfillment, where large retailers are increasingly investing in proprietary infrastructure to achieve greater control over delivery costs and customer service levels.
