How D.C. area’s closest Amazon fulfillment center is ramping up for the holidays


“We have done a good job of getting people in early so that they’re trained,” Fisher said. “We find that that’s the best because when things start to kind of ramp up and get a little crazier, the more familiar they are with the building, it’s better from a safety standpoint and a quality standpoint.” BWI2 opened as Maryland’s first fulfillment center in 2015 and one of the first robotics centers in Amazon’s network, spokeswoman Rachael Lighty said during a tour of the facility on Nov. 8. The building is massive, with four floors totaling 1.2 million square feet.
