Attracted by the competitive advantages that Yucatan offers, Amazon, the multinational company dedicated to the electronic commerce of goods and services, will invest in Yucatan in a new logistics center in the municipality of Uman.
Governor Mauricio Vila Dosal and directors of the multinational announced the realization of this new investment project, which reiterates the state as an attractive logistics hub for the arrival of world-class companies.
Director of Operations of Amazon in Mexico, Diego Mendez de la Luz, thanked Governor Vila Dosal and his team for their support in achieving this possibility, which will allow the important digital commerce firm to continue serving customers with the products they need.
“Amazon’s expansion reflects our commitment to customers in Mexico, which is focused on improving the customer experience. We have a responsibility to the country and communities where we operate and are proud to generate more job opportunities that will benefit the southeast region of the country,” he said.
As part of this alliance with Amazon, the State Government, through the Ministry of Economic Development and Labor (SEFOET), has been preparing personnel from micro and medium enterprises to increase their sales through this electronic platform to access national and international markets.
To date, 18 workshops have been given to sell in Amazon, training a total of 284 companies, of which 60% are from the Food and Beverage sector, 25% are from the Textile Industry, and the remaining 15% belong to diverse industries, such as crafts, cosmetics, cleaning and hygiene products, among others.
