How many warehouses does Amazon have and where are they located?

In terms of Europe, there are presently 30 fulfilment centres that are operational throughout the EU. This figure, certainly in the UK, is consistently rising as the business continues to branch out.

As Amazon's market share and geographical reach increase, so too does their tightening of operational regulations. They require every shipment to be booked in and it can be a full time job just to manage the intake into Amazon alone. There are supply chain companies that specialise in getting consignments into the various Amazon depots, because of their existing journeys. This means there's a good chance that you can use one of their regular delivery slots instead of booking extra vehicles with perhaps empty space making it less efficient.

As of May 2013, Amazon has 49 fulfillment centers spread across 8 countries. Here is the split by country -

• United States – 14 spread across 14 states
• Canada – 2
• France – 3
• Germany – 7
• Italy – 1

The distribution network of Amazon is one of a kind, the company made headlines in March 2015 when it announced to extend its one-hour delivery service to Baltimore and Miami, this service was formerly available only in New York. The company has warehouses as huge as 1 million sq. ft and its website has more than 65 million visits each month making it the world’s largest online retailer. However, Amazon does not publish comprehensive information about it’s fulfillment centers. But for sellers in Amazon’s Fulfillment by Amazon Program (FBA) this can mean a huge headache when it comes time to collect and remit sales tax. To get an idea of where Amazon might expand to next, research firm Piper Jaffray created a map that shows all of Amazon's fulfillment centers in the US as well as its existing same-day shipping regions.

As of April 2015 they reportedly had 96 ware houses in US alone but the number is speculated to be even bigger, they have furthermore invested a lot in emerging markets and have 4 warehouses  in India, 9 in Germany and 12+ in China. They recently announced about $20B to expand their distribution network in these countries.
