About six weeks after the city issued a permit March 14 for internet retailer Amazon to build-out space for a sub-same day facility in West Jacksonville, it followed up with one April 29 for the center’s conveyor system.
Called Amazon SJA1 SSD on the permit, the facility is a same-day delivery fulfillment center designed to enable faster shipping.
The warehouses have been described as smaller, regional facilities designed to deliver high-demand items to customers within a 60-minute drive using the Amazon Flex delivery network, which allows people to use their own vehicles to make deliveries.
