Amazon to open new Maryland FC
Amazon is planning to open a 1.2 million-square-foot fulfilment centre in North East, Maryland. Amazon currently employs more than 3,000 associates at its fulfilment and sortation centres in Baltimore and plans to create 700 new positions at its third Maryland facility.
“We’re excited to open a new, state-of-the-art fulfilment centre in North East,” said Akash Chauhan, Amazon’s vice president of North America operations.
This is the second new US fulfilment centre that Amazon has announced this month. On 4 January, the company reported that it was opening a new facility in Jacksonville, Florida.
