The 160,000 square metre facility will use state-of-the-art technology to speed up the distribution of orders across the whole of south-east Spain. On a site visit, Amazon’s Spanish director, Fred Pattje, said: “We should be operational by October and we will have the capacity to send out 550.000 parcels per day.” The new centre has been built just off the A-30 highway in the Southeast business park at Valladolises in Murcia City. It’s also just six kilometres drive from the regional international airport at Corvera.
