Amazon is opening two new fulfilment centres just east and west of Toronto, a move that will result in the hiring of 2,500 people.
The Seattle-based e-commerce company announced on Wednesday that it will open a fulfilment centre in Ajax, Ont., which is about 50 kilometres east of Toronto, next year. At the same time, it will open another centre in Hamilton, Ont., about 70 km southwest of Canada's biggest city.
Both are slated to open in 2021.
"We've had great success with the talented workforce in Ontario, and we look forward to creating an additional 2,500 full-time jobs with competitive pay and benefits starting on day one," Sumegha Kumar, Amazon Canada's customer fulfilment operations director, said in a release.
Fulfilment centres are where the company processes orders for local communities, before dispatching them to customers in the area. It's anticipated that the Hamilton site will employ about 1,500 people, while Ajax will have about 1,000 full-time workers.
The new centres will mean the company has 10 in Ontario alone, and 16 across Canada.
In addition to the fulfilment centres, the company says it is also adding three new delivery stations in and around Toronto that process and dispatch the so-called "last mile" of deliveries. The new stations will be in Stoney Creek, near Hamilton, and in Scarborough and Vaughan, which are east and north of Toronto.
