Yes, or to what extent ? It seems that amazon's revenue has less than doubled in a year, but their floor space rose ten-fold. I have no hard facts on utilization. Amazon is not forthcoming on specific numbers. I believe they are hardly utilized compared to full capicity. Unkonws are the following: 1. Is AMZN inventorying, the lawncare equipment? 2. Kitchen equipment? A few others which may help utilize the distribution space but could cause huge inventory markdowns.
