Amazon Expands Logistics Empire Beyond E-Commerce
亚马逊向所有企业开放全球物流网络
Amazon announced Monday that it is opening its massive global logistics network to businesses of every size through a new offering called Amazon Supply Chain Services. The move places the company in more direct competition with delivery and shipping giants UPS and FedEx.
Amazon 周一宣布，将通过名为 Amazon Supply Chain Services 的新服务，向各种规模的企业开放其庞大的全球物流网络。这一举措使亚马逊与物流巨头 UPS 和 FedEx 展开更直接的竞争。
The new service gives outside businesses access to Amazon’s extensive freight transportation, warehousing, distribution, fulfillment, and parcel delivery systems. According to the company, the platform is designed for a wide range of industries, including healthcare, automotive, manufacturing, and retail.
这项新服务将向外部企业提供亚马逊的货运、仓储、配送、履约以及包裹运输能力。公司表示，该平台适用于医疗保健、汽车制造、工业制造和零售等多个行业。
For years, Amazon’s logistics infrastructure mainly supported its own online marketplace and millions of third-party sellers. By opening the network to all businesses, Amazon is turning an internal capability into a standalone commercial service and creating a new source of revenue for its e-commerce division.

The company has spent years building warehouses, transportation fleets, and advanced delivery systems capable of moving products quickly across markets worldwide.
这一举措表明，亚马逊不仅希望在在线零售领域保持领先，还计划在全球物流和供应链管理市场占据更重要地位。近年来，公司持续建设仓库、运输车队和先进配送系统，以提高全球商品运输效率。
