Amazon Upgrading From Delivery Vans to Box Trucks to Meet Prime Demand
Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) is stepping up to bigger delivery trucks to meet the now-higher demand for Prime orders. Drivers for the e-commerce giant's delivery service were recently seen in the large box-type trucks often used by FedEx (NYSE: FDX) and UPS, rather than the vans that it usually deploys.
Reuters reports Amazon ordered 2,200 Utilimaster trucks last year from specialty truck manufacturer The Shyft Group (NASDAQ: SHYF), but had not deployed them until recently.
