Amazon says it will invest more than €15 billion in France over the next three years to expand its operations, including new logistics sites, cloud services, and artificial intelligence capabilities. The company says the funding is intended to grow and consolidate its logistics network in France, adding distribution and logistics capacity as it increases services across the country.
Amazon also states that the expansion will involve hiring more than 7,000 people on permanent contracts. The company links job creation to the build-out of its logistics footprint, as well as continued growth of its technology-related activities, including cloud and AI. Across the outlets provided, the figures for total investment and the number of permanent jobs are aligned, and both describe the same broad set of initiatives: expanded logistics infrastructure and increased capacity in Amazon’s cloud and AI operations.
Amazon frames the plan as a multi-year effort to strengthen its presence in France, bringing together existing networks and adding new sites while scaling its services.
