In Andhra Pradesh, Amazon India announced the launch of an all-women partner delivery station.
The new station will be operated by Amazon’s Delivery Service Partner (DSP) and is located at Pidugurulla town of Guntur district. This station is in addition to the existing four all-women delivery stations that operate in the states of Gujarat, Tamil Nadu and Kerala.
Karuna Shankar Pande, Director, Last Mile Operations, Amazon India, said, “I’m proud to announce the launch of the fifth all-women delivery station in the country and the first in the state of Andhra Pradesh. This continued expansion is a testament to providing women with growth opportunities that enable them to expand their horizons. Our Delivery Service Partners across the country play an important role in strengthening Amazon India’s operations network, and in delivering smiles to our customers. We stay committed to providing women with safe and fulfilling opportunities, and remain steadfast in our resolve to financially uplift them.”
The DSP program has provided growth avenues for SMBs and has helped Amazon India to expand its reach into India’s hinterlands. Providing employment opportunities to tens of thousands of delivery associates, today, Amazon India has close to 1650 Delivery Service Partner Stations across more than 750 cities. The company seamlessly manages last-mile deliveries across the country, through this program.
“I was always ambitious and wanted to pursue my higher studies, but the financial condition at my home did not allow me to do so. My father, who is a farmer, needed financial help to manage the expenses at home. With this job, I am empowered to be financially independent and also take care of my family. It gives me immense satisfaction to inspire many other young women from my village,” said Vimala Banala, Delivery Associate, from the all-women delivery station in Pidugurulla.
