Amazon Opening 1st Colorado Facility In Aurora

AURORA, Colo. (AP) - Amazon's first facility in Colorado will bring hundreds of jobs to the Denver suburb of Aurora.

The Denver Post reported Tuesday that sealed packages will be sorted by zip code for delivery to local U.S. post offices at the Amazon sorting center just south of Denver International Airport. Amazon spokeswoman Ashley S. Robinson said in an email to the Post that the company is hiring hundreds for the center.

Robinson said hiring has begun, but no opening date for the center was available.
