Amazon India on Tuesday announced the launch of a new delivery station in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. Spread across 22,000 square feet, the new station will enable Amazon to further strengthen its last-mile delivery network and ensure faster deliveries across the city of Ghaziabad and in adjoining areas in the lead-up to the festive season.
According to a release, the new delivery station will create diverse and meaningful work opportunities for all backgrounds, genders, age groups, and ethnicities in the state. These opportunities will be in roles ranging from workplace health and safety, station managers, process associates, and Amazon Flex delivery partners who work collaboratively to help deliver products.

We are appreciative of Amazon and other companies for their continued trust and investment in the development of Uttar Pradesh.”
