Windsor's Amazon delivery station to open by end of October — starting with about 70 employees
Amazon Canada says its Windsor delivery station will open its doors by the end of October.
Spokesperson Ryma Boussoufa refers to the 125,000 square foot facility as a DCL8 hub — the company's "last mile of customer fulfilment" for across the Windsor-Essex region.
She says it will open with more than 70 employees and that they're currently in the process of filling those jobs.
A specific opening date was not included in a Friday statement by the company.
Amazon previously said its intention was to eventually grow its workforce to roughly 300 full-time and part-time workers.
The warehouse and processing facility is where the old Chrysler Pillette Road assembly plant used to be.
Invest WindsorEssex had previously suggested the jobs would pay between $18 to $20 per hour.
