Amazon's sprawling empire
From coast to coast and around the globe
Amazon is a global behemoth with a vast network of offices and warehouses across the United States and around the world. The company's new headquarters in Arlington, Virginia, is just one of many major hubs for Amazon's operations. In New Jersey, Amazon has a large presence in Jersey City, where it had pitched itself for its second headquarters, offering as much as $5 billion in incentives. Amazon's warehouses in the state serve millions of customers in the region, while its corporate office in Newark is a bustling hub of activity.
Amazon's Newark footprint
Amazon has had a foothold in Newark since 2008, when it acquired Newark-based Audible, an audiobook and podcast company. Amazon's presence in Newark has grown significantly since then, and the company now employs thousands of people in the city. Amazon's Newark operations include a large warehouse and distribution center, as well as a customer service center. The company is also a major investor in Newark's redevelopment efforts, and it has played a key role in the city's revitalization.
Jobs and economic impact
Amazon's presence in Newark has had a major impact on the city's economy. The company's jobs have helped to boost the city's tax base and support local businesses. Amazon has also invested heavily in Newark's infrastructure, including the construction of a new light rail station. The company's presence has helped to make Newark a more attractive destination for businesses and residents alike.
