Flipkart to open two new warehouses in Haryana; to create 5,000 jobs

Walmart-owned Flipkart on Tuesday said it is strengthening its supply chain infrastructure by setting up two warehouses (fulfilment centres or FCs) in Haryana, a move that will create about 5,000 jobs locally.

“Spread across 9 lakh square feet, the FCs will help Flipkart significantly scale up its supply chain infrastructure in North India. The FCs will enhance the company’s ability to support the delivery and supply chain logistics of a wide selection of large and non-large products (including furniture and large appliances)…,” a statement said.

The facilities will also amplify Flipkart’s capabilities to cater to more consumers in the country, it added.
