Amazon is reportedly looking to open its first packing warehouse in Ireland, allowing it to avoid delays brought by new Brexit trade arrangements.
The retail giant wants to use a 650,000-sq-ft unit at a business park in Baldonnell, west of Dublin, according to the
news agency.
If the deal goes ahead, customers are expected to receive Amazon purchases faster, as many items are currently dispatched from the UK.
Gilles Fernandez, the commercial director of An Post Commerce, which delivers Amazon parcels in Ireland, hailed the move as “good news” for Irish customers.
