"In Amazon Mexico we have been operating since June 2015, we have 10 Shipping Centers, from where the packages leave; 2 Logistics or Classification Centers, and 31 delivery stations, it is the last physical building where a package goes up to a Van, and we have many plans to grow in the country," stressed Diego Méndez.

He explained that for the company of American origin it is very important to be close to the client. Before, shipments were made from Mexico City to all points of the Republic and took just over two days to arrive, for example, to Tijuana.

In the case of Nuevo León, as it has a Center in Apodaca, a product can be ordered before 12:00 noon and it is received the same day; in seven other cities they have delivery on the same day, and in other entities the shipment is delivered in two days, except when there is an import order, due to the border crossing.

He explained that in the state of Nuevo León there is a lot of availability of industrial warehouses, such as those that Amazon requires, with spaces between 10,000 and 100,000 square meters, however, sometimes they have to invest because they must raise the construction standard, for example, climatize and renovate sanitary installations.

"At Amazon we do not accept that, we want people to have very good conditions, our Shipping Center in Apodaca is air-conditioned, we want people to be comfortable there. Sometimes we have to start from scratch and build, because our specifications have very high expectations. ", he stressed.

He stressed that in their work centers, collaborators must have all the comfort and dignity, especially the sanitary facilities and the cafeteria.
