Amazon has finally opened the new fulfillment center in Gaines Township, Michigan.

According to WOOD, the new Amazon facility is pretty massive at 855,000 square feet. The new employees kicked open the doors on Sunday for the first day on the job.

This Amazon hub will basically grab the item, pack it then ship it out to the customer.

There are some robots in the facility which Amazon had employees to autograph and I'm not sure why but they did.
