After months of preparation in Lewisville, Amazon’s Prime Day, an annual members-only sale lasting two days, is back for its eighth year today and tomorrow.
Amazon workers sort early Prime Day packages as they arrive at one of the company's largest delivery stations in Lewisville. The crew will move and deliver roughly 172,000 packages during the two-day sale.After a customer places an order, the item is picked in a fulfillment center by Amazon’s associates and robots and brought to facilities like the one in Lewisville. The package is then loaded into a tote to the delivery van and sent out to the customer’s home.
Some 172,000 packages will move through Amazon's Lewisville delivery station during the two-day Prime Day sale.“This is what we live for in operations. We’ve been planning this for months. It’s always busy here, but the big difference is the increase in volume,” Morillo said. “We’ve needed to increase hiring and do a lot of training and forecasting ahead of time to ensure that packages are delivered safely and on time.
Texas is second only to California in terms of Amazon employment. The state also makes up 40,000 of Amazon’s 1.7 million small and medium-sized businesses, which account for 60% of everything sold on the company’s website.“We’re really proud of the way that we’ve been able to integrate small and medium-sized businesses into our inventory and to customers who may have never reached them,” Martin said.
