The e-commerce behemoth’s (con vật kếch xù) Prime Day sales last week was a massive exercise in logistics that ended up swelling Amazon Fulfillment Centers by over 25%, as recorded by Freightos Marketplace.

Diesel fuel prices have gone up by 45%, while jet-fuel prices have risen by over 50% since last year.
