Amazon Logistics Invests in Two Stations in Right to Work Alabama

Amazon Logistics plans to open not one, but two new stations in Birmingham, Alabama. The investment for the project will come to $25 million. This will cover a delivery station in Bessemer that will amount to 112,000 square feet. As a result of the investment, they will create 80 full-time jobs, but that’s not all. They also plan to hire 200 contract drivers and various part-time workers. So this will be good for not only Amazon Logistics but for everyone involved.

We are happy to see Amazon’s continued growth with these delivery stations and the quality job opportunities that come with it.†[…]

“A few years ago, Jefferson County intentionally recruited Amazon with the ‘Bring A to B’ initiative. […] Since then, Amazon has announced multiple centers and thousands of jobs.â€AREA DEVELOPMENT MAGAZINE
