Amazon Commits ₹2,000 Crore to Supercharge India’s Logistics Network
Amazon has committed ₹2,000 crore (approximately $233 million) towards expanding and modernizing its logistics and delivery network across India in 2025. The move reinforces the e-commerce giant’s long-term strategy to enhance customer experience and operational efficiency in one of its fastest-growing markets.
The investment will support the development of new fulfilment centres, sortation hubs, and delivery stations while modernizing existing infrastructure with automation tools and safety-enhancing features. The upgrades are expected to significantly increase processing capacity, reduce delivery timelines, and bolster service reliability across India’s vast network of pin codes.
A significant aspect of this expansion focuses on improving delivery partner welfare. Amazon will scale initiatives such as:
- Ashray: Establishing rest areas equipped with seating, water, and restroom facilities.
- Samridhi: Promoting financial literacy among delivery partners.
- Pratidhi: Providing scholarships for children of associates.
- Sushruta: Offering healthcare checkups and support services to truck drivers.
By the end of 2025, Amazon plans to deliver free health checkups to over 80,000 delivery personnel.
To enhance safety and productivity, the company is introducing tools like helmet verification, real-time route monitoring, and an improved delivery app featuring clearer earnings summaries and navigational updates. This development comes amid India’s booming e-commerce growth, projected to reach $325 billion by 2030. With major rivals also investing heavily in logistics, Amazon’s latest announcement underscores its commitment to strengthening its fulfilment ecosystem and reinforcing its leadership in India’s digital retail space.
