Last week, Amazon (AMZN  ) announced the opening of its new $1.5 billion air hub located in northern Kentucky, which will ultimately bring about quicker delivery and stronger power over its network.

This particular development serves as a prominent breakthrough for Amazon Air, which is the company's mobile version of making deliveries. Airplanes act as a necessary aspect of the process of making certain that consumers' parcels arrive safely and securely to them.

"We're investing $1.5 billion in our new air hub to get you your packages faster," founder and then CEO Jeff Bezos tweeted back in May 2019. "Three million square feet, and it's going to create 2,000 jobs."

The new Kentucky hub, which is in very close proximity to Cincinnati, Ohio, has been in the works for over four years.

Covering a campus of over 600 acres, it also contains a ramp for aircraft parking, a multi-level parking structure, and seven buildings. An 800,000-robotic-sort center will also be implemented by Amazon, which is where parcels will be organized via zip code and synthesized into trucks before they are sent out for delivery.

Amazon Global Air vice president Sarah Rhoads has revealed that, for the time being, it will be concentrated on dealing strictly with package volume. "Right now, we're focused on our customers for sure," Rhoads reported in an interview with CNBC. "We built the hub in Cincinnati to serve our Amazon customers, there's really no other purpose than that."

These days, Amazon Air contains more than 75 aircraft within its network. It intends to contain over 80 planes within the next year as well as 85 by the year 2022. Amazon Air, which now contains a hub for the purpose of speeding up deliveries, will surely be a strong new commodity in the world of Amazon. It will enable individuals to experience services that are much more stable, convenient, and more efficient, which will in turn lead to greater customer satisfaction.
