Amazon is praising its plans to expand its distribution channel to little towns, especially in rural areas, with Prime Day 2025 nearly upon us. &nbsp,

By the end of 2025, Amazon plans to offer same-day and next-day distribution to more than 4, 000 populations, according to a statement from Amazon. Lewes, Delaware, Asbury, Iowa, and North Padre Island, Texas were named among the sites it called out. &nbsp,

For the first time in more than two weeks, Prime Day will take place this year on July 8 through July 11. &nbsp,

By the end of 2026, the online retailer already announced plans to have tripled its distribution network with a multibillion-dollar development that will enable Amazon to reach more than 13, 000 ZIP code, easing the delivery periods for millions of people. &nbsp,

Udit Madan, senior vice president of global operations at Amazon, said in a statement that this investment will expand the footprint of our rural distribution network to over 200 supply facilities. We believe it will lead to more than 100, 000 new tasks and driving possibilities in a variety of full-, part-, and versatile positions in our buildings and on the roads.

The growth is a wise move for Amazon, according to James Bricknell, top editor and e-commerce expert at CNET. He claimed that” If they can reduce out the other companies, they can control the costs companies pay to them, making it less expensive for Amazon in the long run.”

Given that this comes at a time when President Donald Trump’s tax plan is looming and expected to increase prices across Amazon, making deliveries less expensive would be a significant factor. The software giant announced earlier this year that it had no intention of releasing a feature that lists price rises on its site.

The announcement of the expansion of the business comes after Amazon announced its upcoming July Prime Day Sale. Bricknell added that he’s interested to see how much support the business could receive from remote areas. He said that” Little cities don’t usually like large warehouses blotting the landscape,” which could cause Amazon to square off.

Small companies in these areas are anticipated to grow as a result of the development to remote areas. Small businesses can use the Amazon Hub Delivery system to deliver goods to customers, allowing them to do thus.
