Over 1,000 same-day hubs coming

Amazon plans to expand from 85 same-day delivery hubs to more than 1,000 by 2031. The initiative is called Project Mercury.

80% of Prime members covered

The hubs will be within 10 miles of 80% of U.S. Prime subscribers. Internal documents show this is the project's geographic goal.

$6.8 billion investment planned

Amazon will spend $6.8 billion on same-day capacity this year and next. The company forecasts $7.1 billion in value over a decade.

8 billion fast deliveries in 2025

Amazon delivered over 8 billion items same or next day to U.S. Prime members in 2025. That's a 30% increase from the previous year.

“That said, it's no secret that we're focused on delivering faster for customers, and the expansion of our same-day delivery network is playing a big role in that.”

Expansion into rural America

Same-day and next-day delivery reached over 4,000 small cities, towns and rural areas across 44 states during 2025.

Drone delivery scaling up fast

Amazon hopes to offer drone deliveries in nearly 500 U.S. communities by year's end. That's a sixfold increase for Prime Air service.
