Amazon.com announced plans to open its second Colorado fulfilment centre in Thornton, which will be the first Amazon Robotics facility in the Centennial State. Amazon will create more than 1,500 new full-time associate roles at this facility.
“We are excited to continue growing in Colorado with the new Robotics fulfilment center in Thornton,” said Akash Chauhan, Amazon’s vice president of North American Operations. “This facility will utilise robotics, vision systems, and more than 20 years’ worth of software and mechanical innovations. We are grateful for the support we have received from state and local leaders who have helped make this project possible.”
