Amazon gives tour of Albuquerque fulfillment center

ALBUQUERQUE, NM (KRQE) – Amazon officials hosted tours of their new Albuquerque facility named ABQ1. They showed what happens after you make a purchase, with workers pulling items and packaging orders, as well as conveyor belts carrying packages that are ready to be delivered. The facility employs roughly 3,000 people but they also get some help from new, state-of-the-art technology, with robots moving around the fulfillment center getting packages where they need to go.
