As stated by Amazon, the strategy involves constructing four warehouse facilities, establishing new order sorting centers, and enhancing and enlarging its current operational network nationwide, comprising over 100 buildings. 

“The investment is expected to generate thousands of new long-term jobs in the UK, with most situated outside of London and the South East region,” reads the statement. 

The funding will also cover the establishment of two new structures for Amazon's corporate offices in East London, along with enhancements to transportation infrastructure. The strategy considers the £8 billion investment in data centers in the UK that the company revealed in September 2024.
