Amazon's operations network (Fulfilment Centres, Sort Centres, IXDs, Return Centres, Last Mile Stations, Quick Commerce hubs and Micro Fulfilment Centres) is the physical engine at the heart of Amazon. It moves billions of units of inventory, employs tens of thousands of people, and makes sure customers get what they want when promised.
