All orders processed and shipped by Amazon are marked as “delivery by Amazon”. Amazon is a Seattle-based e-commerce store that Jeff Bezos founded in 1994. It began as an online bookstore or platform that offers the facility of purchase and sale of books online. The idea was to give the international audience access to an exhaustive catalogue so that their knowledge does not stay limited to physical libraries. The company was listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange in 1997. Today, it sells practically all kinds of products online–video games, computer equipment, accessories, software, games and toys, clothing, furnishings, cosmetics, jewellery, food products, and much more. It also offers doorstep delivery services. Over the last decade, the company has experienced exponential growth; the company surpassed Walmart as a preferred merchant in the United States in 2015. Amazon Prime is its in-house expedited delivery service. Across the world, it has, at present, over 100 million subscribers. 

The company is the largest online retailer by market cap across the globe. In 2020 itself, around a million people were employed by Amazon. There are specific sites for several countries, and the original American site was set up in 1995.
Technological innovation in its products & services drives the continual growth of Amazon. The company has also developed audio and video streaming platforms; Amazon Music and Amazon Prime Video. It offers electronic products like the Kindle e-reader and the Amazon Fire TV Stick. TrackMyPack also has the Amazon return tracking feature.

In 2017 itself, the e-commerce store shipped over 5 billion products worldwide. One of its prime objectives is to continuously reduce the redundancies in its supply chain to save costs. Package delivery is one of Amazon’s main expenses. Before its own delivery service, the company dispatched its shipments using major carriers and delivery service providers like Amazon USPS tracking, DHL, Or FedEx.
Since Amazon started its shipping service, it has significantly saved on its costs. However additionally, the company continues to collaborate with third parties. To know if your package has been dispatched through Amazon shipment services, look for the phrase “delivered by Amazon” on your package.

Other features of Amazon delivery services include product delivery on Sundays and its operation through a network of subcontracted delivery drivers making deliveries through the Amazon Flex program. Amazon makes deliveries directly from the warehouses. So, the third-party carrier does not need to wait to receive the package before sending it to a customer. Similarly, the customer need not wait to use the Amazon return tracking feature on TrackMyPack. It reduces the time gap between the customer placing the order and the package with the Amazon Logistics Tracking number getting dispatched to the customer’s location. Besides, this facility has helped Amazon significantly increase its delivery capacity. It has also made same-day and free two-day delivery possible with Amazon Prime.
All the products are randomly stored in the warehouses, making it possible for Amazon to have a wide range of products available. Once the order is placed, the product is directed to the manager (who has to pick the item) through a robotic chain that facilitates the transport of products within the warehouse.

When the product is set out from the stock for delivery, it is transported through a conveyor belt to the packing station. Then, it is weighed, packaged, and its contents are checked. Upon validation, it is labelled and placed in a trailer, which is assigned as per the delivery method, time of delivery and destination.
These transport vehicles carry over 2,000 packages for every trip and dispatch orders from the distribution centres to the sorting centres. Eventually, all packages are classified as per delivery time and destination. Finally, different subcontracting carriers or Amazon takes care of the packages.
