What is Last-Mile Delivery?
Last-mile delivery in Canada is the final step in shipping, where an order reaches the customer’s doorstep.
How Amazon Handles Last-Mile Delivery
Amazon uses advanced strategies to optimize last-mile delivery:
AWS Dynamic Delivery Planner (DDP): This machine-learning tool calculates the best delivery routes and adjusts in real time for factors like traffic or weather.
Amazon Hub Delivery: Amazon partners with local businesses to reduce logistical complexity by sending packages to a few locations, which businesses then distribute.
What This Means for Sellers
Amazon sellers benefit from the company’s advanced delivery solutions through Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA). Sellers can access efficient, cost-effective last-mile delivery without needing to invest in their own technology.
