A new fulfillment center opened by Amazon in the UAE on Monday, March 20, increasing storage capacity by 70%. The facility is in Dubai South and was officially opened on that day.

A greater choice of products will be supported by the opening in time for Ramadan, and the fulfillment network will be improved to increase delivery and customer service.

The new facility has a 2.1 million cubic foot storage capacity and five storeys with over three kilometers of conveyance equipment.

The increased capacity will also make it possible for small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs to use Amazon's logistics and fulfillment services. This action is in accordance with Sheikh Hamdan's declaration that he supports Amazon's aspirations to feature 100,000 firms on its e-commerce website by 2026 as part of the Dubai Economic Plan D33 to transform Dubai into a major digital hub.

“At Dubai South, it is our responsibility to support the government's efforts at economic diversification through the various services and solutions we offer to national and international businesses,” according to Khalifa Al Zaffin, Executive Chairman of Dubai Aviation City Corporation and Dubai South.

“We have built a world-class logistics, supply chain, and warehousing infrastructure ecosystem, making it a suitable location for Amazon's new facility.”

“We are thrilled to welcome the company’s second Fulfillment Centre in our Logistics District, as hosting a global e-commerce company like Amazon expanding its investment in the UAE brings us closer to our mission to catalyze the UAE’s economic growth.”
