Amazon's US delivery stations suddenly increased by 450, and it is fully prepared for the peak season!

Recently, according to logistics consulting firm MWPV LInternational, Amazon has opened 450 new delivery stations in the United States , adding to the previous total of 930. The main reason why Amazon has established so many delivery stations in the United States is to speed up the movement of goods in order to provide a larger supply. At the same time, this move can also help Amazon get rid of its dependence on third parties.

Relevant people said that whether Amazon speeds up delivery or builds more distribution stations, it is further increasing Amazon's investment costs, and the return on cost investment will depend on the growth of sales performance.

It is understood that by the end of this year, Amazon will add 30 distribution centers and store 3 million items. By then, Amazon's delivery speed in the United States will be further accelerated. In addition, the number of new workers hired this year and the nearly $4 billion invested in solving the supply chain costs, if the expected results are achieved, will also enable Amazon to win more consumer trust in the United States.

Black Friday, Cyber ​​Monday and the following Christmas have become the key points for Amazon's performance growth. Currently, Amazon is making every effort to sprint for peak season sales, but Black Friday's sales performance has declined for the first time, which has made many sellers tremble slightly. Although according to forecasts, Cyber ​​Monday may be able to reverse the situation, sellers are still worried.

Adobe adjusted its forecast for Cyber ​​Monday after seeing the performance of online retailers on Thanksgiving and Black Friday. It has adjusted its forecast from the initial forecast of a record-breaking $11.3 billion in online sales to between $10.2 billion and $11.3 billion . The change in this figure shows that Black Friday's sales performance has indeed had an impact on subsequent online sales.

According to foreign media reports, consumers' early shopping is one of the reasons affecting peak season sales, which has slowed down the purchasing power of the five important days of the peak season. The report also said that although the online sales of Black Friday and Thanksgiving were not satisfactory, some small retailers abroad have set sales records on Cyber ​​Monday.
