Amazon’s new facility off Bradley Street near Interstate 81 in the Town of Pamelia appears to be operating as the company finalizes hiring details for a site expected to employ 100 to 150 people.
The facility was expected to open in fall 2026. Amazon has said it will provide more information later in the week of Nov. 10, including details about jobs at the location.
The 77,400-square-foot building sits on 13 acres in the Bradley Street Commerce Park. The Montante Group developed the facility and leases it to Amazon. Amazon purchased the land in August 2025, and the Pamelia Planning Board approved the site plan in April 2025.
The project was initially targeted for a late spring or early summer 2026 opening before that timeline moved to the fall. Plans called for about 50 additional workers during the holiday season.
The site is being described as the North Country’s first Amazon distribution center. Delivery-driver recruitment took place at The WorkPlace in Watertown about two weeks before Nov. 10. People seeking work can contact The WorkPlace at 1000 Coffeen St. in Watertown or call (315) 786-3651. Amazon’s job portal is available online.
The Jefferson County Code Enforcement Office handles certificates of occupancy after final approval. The office says processing takes about 10 days after a final inspection. Permit and occupancy questions can be directed to the office at (315) 785-5130 or through the county’s Code Enforcement page.
Amazon’s hiring updates are expected later in the week of Nov. 10, 2026.
