Amazon Bypasses Logistics and Supply Chain Bottlenecks with Its Own Ships and Containers

 

New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/28/2022 -- Amazon has a reputation as a business that is keen on innovation and the retailer has created many logistics and supply chain jobs through its actions over the years. That's especially so with respect to the behind-the-scenes planning that has gone into Amazon's approach to the complex journey that can be involved in a product purchase. What many don't realize is that Amazon has actually been making its own containers, leasing cargo planes, and chartering cargo ships for many years. This approach has reaped rewards during the pandemic when bottlenecks have caused huge delays for many retailers. With its own ships and containers, Amazon has been able to avoid issues, such as the long wait times for dock space and workers, allowing it to keep its supply chains moving. As Amazon has been chartering its own ships it has had a lot more control over where its deliveries go and has been able to avoid the ports with the most issues. Making its own containers has been a vital part of this process.
