About the team

Alexandria Logistics (AMZL) is responsible for delivering millions of products directly to customers' doors. The "Last-Mile-Logistics" delivers our packages in partnership with third-party providers and implements numerous initiatives to continuously improve, ensuring millions of customers are satisfied.

Our goal is to make the delivery experience for our customers as smooth as possible and introduce global delivery solutions for our latest offerings, including Amazon Fresh, Prime Now, and Amazon Restaurants.

Our work can be divided into two categories. "Under the Roof" involves everything that happens within our logistics facilities, while "On the Road" covers what occurs in the delivery areas on the road. Our employees prepare packages for daily shipping to our delivery teams in various shifts (night, early, late), handle returns that cannot be delivered, and manage customer inquiries.

We set new standards annually regarding customer experience and offer new, innovative delivery services. We seek new ways to overcome industry-wide logistics challenges and new ideas to reduce our carbon footprint. We support ourselves with an innovative fleet of vehicles (including electric vehicles) and the most advanced technology.
