Amazon picks Greenwood, Indiana, for a plant building equipment for its robotics and fulfillment network

Amazon plans to spend more than $100 million on a 585,000 sq ft manufacturing facility in Greenwood, Indiana, scheduled to start operating in 2028 with 300 skilled manufacturing and engineering jobs. The site will produce equipment for Amazon's fulfillment and robotics network across North America, combining fabrication, robotic welding, automated powder coating and assembly supported by AWS and AI-based production systems, the company said.

Amazon already runs a large robot manufacturing operation in Massachusetts that has built more than one million robots now deployed in over 300 facilities worldwide.
