Storage in Amazon warehouses in Poland
It was possible to store goods in Amazon’s warehouses in Poland in the past. FBA sellers using the Central Europe Program for example could store their goods in Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic. However, customers from Poland buying on Amazon were basically buying on the German Amazon site, Amazon.de.
This will change now, providing a better shopping experience for Polish customers while giving local and small Polish businesses the opportunity to reach more people all around the world. Accordingly, storage in Poland and the provision of warehouses will continue to increase in the coming years.
