Amazon to open another logistics center
15:41
US e-commerce giant Amazon plans to open their fourth logistics center in Poland. The company is on the lookout for grounds near Stryków, central Poland, Polish daily Rzeczpospolita informed.
The new logistics center would serve orders from Polish customers as Amazon is expected to launch its local e-store mid-2016.
"Such a decision would be the confirmation that the Polish market is not only ready to host the global e-commerce leader, but it can also support it in its further development," said Robert Dobrzycki, managing partner at Panattoni Europe, a company responsible for the construction of two out of three logistics centers located in Poland.
Amazon commented cautiously on the information. Although the company says it is appreciating the potential of the Polish market, it refuses to announce the exact date of launching the Polish version of the e-store.
Amazon currently employs some 6,000 people in Poland.
