In this guide, we take you on a tour of Amazon fulfillment centers and help you navigate how they work and where they’re located. Let’s get started.

What is an Amazon Fulfillment Center? – An In-Depth Tour of Amazon Fulfillment Centers:

What is a Fulfillment Center?

Before we dive too deep into Amazon fulfillment centers, let’s first try to understand what a fulfillment center is. A fulfillment center is a facility that takes care of the order fulfillment process. Sometimes considered a packing warehouse, the fulfillment center receives customer orders, picks them from the storage location, packs them, and ships them out to be delivered to the end customer.

What are Amazon Fulfillment Centers?

As the name suggests, an Amazon fulfillment center is a facility in which orders placed on Amazon are processed and fulfilled. They store inventory and function as distribution centers through which orders are received, processed, picked, packed, and shipped out. Amazon fulfillment centers are responsible for fulfilling all orders for Amazon products and all Fulfillment by Amazon orders.

Activities Within a Fulfillment Center?

Inside Fulfillment Center

There are a number of activities that take place within a fulfillment center. Typically, the following processes are carried out by a fulfillment center.

Inventory receiving

First, the fulfillment center receives the inventory. Products enter the warehouse through the inbound dock typically using forklifts or sometimes manually built into pallets. In an Amazon fulfillment center, the freight is also separated between those coming from another Amazon facility and those coming from a vendor. 

In the latter case, the products would come from a seller that’s using the Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) program. This service allows sellers to send their inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers, where they’re stored until they’re ready to be shipped out. Once orders are placed on the website, the fulfillment center then picks, packs, and ships the orders in addition to taking care of customer service. 

Inventory storage

The received inventory is then stowed within the fulfillment center until they’re ready to be fulfilled. This stowing process varies depending on the company. While others may have a system in place to store items by product type and category, others may also store them based on product type.

At Amazon fulfillment centers, all the stowed items are properly recorded using computers and barcode scanning. This allows associates to keep track of where specific items are located within the fulfillment center.

Order receiving

Once an item is processed and stowed in the fulfillment center, it’s made available for purchase on the seller’s website. In the case of Amazon, the item will be available for purchase on the Amazon website. Then when a customer places an order for the item, the fulfillment center automatically receives and processes the order.

Order picking

After the order is processed, picking lists are generated and assigned to pickers. It’s the job of these pickers to ensure that the right items are sent out to the customers. The picking process also varies depending on the fulfillment center.

At Amazon, for instance, a robot will bring pods filled with items to pick stations, where associates have to retrieve the right item from the bin. The picked items are then set aside for the next stage of the fulfillment process.

Order packing

The next step involves packing orders and getting them ready for shipping. Associates will start by scanning items for accuracy and organizing them based on which shipment they belong to. The items are then sent to pack stations, where associates will place them inside appropriate boxes and pack them properly to withstand transportation.

At Amazon fulfillment centers, the process is optimized to minimize waste as much as possible. They use a system that recommends the correct box size for each item or shipment. It also measures the exact amount of tape that’s required so that nothing goes to waste. 

Order shipping

Once packed, orders go through a final preparation process wherein they’re weighed and assigned shipping labels. The specific activities that take place during this stage also vary for different companies.

Amazon leverages SLAM (scan, label, apply, manifest) machines across their fulfillment centers. These machines apply shipping labels to the packages at extraordinary speed for increased efficiency. Each package is also weighed for quality control, which helps to ensure that the content matches the order.

At this stage of the fulfillment process, shipping sorters also play a crucial role by reading the package labels. They then determine where each order should be sent and how fast they should be sent out. The packages are then transported down slides and directed to the correct trailer depending on different criteria such as location, shipping method, and delivery speed. 

Items will be distributed based on the transportation method relevant to the specified delivery speed. These methods may range from planes and Amazon trucks to carrier partners such as the U.S Postal Service. 

For example, Prime orders will get priority shipping and, as such, diverted to transportation methods that can ensure faster deliveries. Planes are typically leveraged to meet the 2-day delivery window that Prime members are eligible to get. Amazon also leverages vans, bikes, and sometimes even robots to deliver orders to the end customers.

How Businesses Can Leverage Amazon Fulfillment Centers

Based on what we’ve outlined above, you can understand how Amazon leverages automation and technology to improve speed and accuracy across its fulfillment centers. Businesses selling on the website can leverage these fulfillment centers to scale their fulfillment operations and exponentially grow their business.

To take advantage of Amazon fulfillment centers, sellers will need to sign up for the Fulfillment by Amazon program. For a predetermined fee, they can send their inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers and leave the entire fulfillment process to the experts. This includes receiving orders, picking and packing them, and shipping them out. In addition, Amazon will also handle customer support on the seller’s behalf, which significantly saves you time and resources.

Amazon has a vast network of fulfillment centers spread across the globe, which further makes it an appealing choice. These fulfillment centers are strategically located near major metropolitan areas to speed up the shipping process. This means orders can get delivered quickly and at a lower cost. 

Moreover, Amazon also has a diversified delivery fleet to optimize the shipping and delivery process even after orders leave their facility. From trucks and vans to bikes and planes and even robots–your orders will be assigned an appropriate transportation method depending on how soon they need to be delivered. That way, you can ensure a seamless delivery experience and maintain customer satisfaction.
