Online retail giant Amazon has opened the doors to its second Australian fulfilment centre.

Located in the South West Sydney suburb of Moorebank, the new centre is nearly double the size of its Melbourne counterpart, which was opened after the launch of Amazon Australia in December 2017.

Amazon director of operations Robert Bruce said this is an exciting milestone for Amazon Australia.

“The Sydney facility in Moorebank will help Amazon ensure that customers enjoy fast and reliable delivery across more areas of the country.”

The fulfilment centre has a 43,000 square metre footprint - approximately six football fields - and its location provides easy access to the M5 motorway, Sydney airport and ports.

It is expected the centre will provide small to medium sized Australian businesses which use Fulfilment By Amazon (FBA) with faster shipping services.

Sellers using FBA will also automatically have their products eligible for Prime, Amazon’s newly launched subscription service that provides customers with benefits such as free two day business delivery.
