Even though it wasn’t shipped in a brown cardboard box, Amazon has delivered a warehouse to Tillamook – its first on the Oregon Coast. A ribbon-cutting and grand opening ceremony tour was hosted by Amazon to celebrate the opening of its new 47,000 square-foot warehouse at the Port of Tillamook Bay on May 28. The purpose of the building is to operate as a “Last Mile” facility to get Amazon orders to its customers faster in rural areas by operating as a terminus for the company that receives packages, loads them, and delivers them within a 50-mile radius of the Tillamook warehouse – as far north as Cannon Beach and south to Lincoln City.
