Amazon is revamping its inbound fulfillment processes to enhance inventory management within its logistics network, as stated by CEO Andy Jassy. The company has implemented numerous changes across its U.S. logistics and opened over 15 facilities dedicated to this effort, improving inventory distribution by 25% year-over-year. While these changes aim to expedite deliveries and reduce costs, challenges persist for third-party sellers due to capacity constraints at West Coast locations. Amazon remains committed to investing in its supply chain, including robotics to boost efficiency and safety.
