30 April 2019
Amazon’s new fulfilment centre at Kegworth has opened with 500 new roles to be created this year, with capacity to expand to over 1,000 permanent positions in the future.
Kegworth will be the fifth Amazon fulfilment centre in the Midlands, and joins facilities in Coalville, Daventry, Rugeley, and Rugby, which will open later this year. In addition, the first dedicated UK receive centre opened in Coventry in 2018, and acts as a central hub to receive and sort millions of products sold on Amazon.co.uk each year.
