Construction has begun on a new Amazon delivery facility in Carolina Forest, designed to accelerate package delivery for area residents.
Covering over 27 acres on Postal Way, this hub will play a key role in Amazon’s expanding logistics network.
Unlike previous projects, no tax incentives are involved, highlighting Amazon's direct investment in the community.

The center is projected to generate local jobs and spur economic growth, though an official opening date remains unannounced.
This initiative comes on the heels of the 2024 launch of Amazon’s same-day delivery site in North Myrtle Beach.
