Economic Impact of Fulfillment Centers in Secondary Market

Abstract | Faster growth of eCommerce resulted in the development of fulfilment centres distributed throughout secondary market locations, including cities, rural areas, and more. These facilities serve as crucial elements of job development, community infrastructure growth, and economic expansion in local areas, yet they produce certain obstacles. This research examines how fulfilment centres affect the economy of secondary markets by studying their advantages and drawbacks. Fulfilment centres create job opportunities across the organization through positions in warehouse work and managerial functions. These facilities develop trained staff through school partnerships and education-based workforce development schemes. The establishment of these fulfilment centers results in investment activity which creates demand for industrial properties along with transportation infrastructure. Higher business activity between fulfilment centres and neighbouring communities enables suppliers, service providers, and retail sectors to increase their tax contributions for public service funding. The dependency on fulfilment centres generates potential economic weaknesses for businesses. Businesses that depend solely on one industry become exposed when corporate relocation or automation happens to their operations. Local economies experience economic stress from rising housing costs, suppressed wages, and public infrastructure battles environmental challenges and transportation congestion, but there is no mention of security in this discussion. The presence of large corporations generates pressure on small businesses that causes negative impacts on their operational capacity and typical business activities within communities. The article delivers a thorough evaluation of these variables while showing policymakers along with local governments how to achieve economic development together with sustainable development. Secondary markets that develop strategic positionings based on advantage recognition and potential disadvantages will achieve maximum economic stability and limit fulfilment centre risks in the long term. |
