Amazon has established multiple facilities in Brevard County, with its $120 million satellite processing facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center standing as the largest such facility globally. The site, located on the Kennedy Space Center grounds, is part of the company's growing logistics network in the region. Photographs from May 17, 2026, show the facility's exterior, though specific operational details remain limited.
In Cocoa, the company operates a distribution center on Grissom Parkway, which has been active since 2022. The facility employs over 1,000 workers and handles a significant portion of Amazon's regional inventory. Nearby, a warehouse on Sarno Road in Melbourne has been a key hub since 2020, with recent expansions increasing its storage capacity by 20%. Employees at both sites have reported steady hiring in recent months.
West Melbourne is home to Project Zeppelin, a 117-acre mixed-use development that includes a 1.2-million-square-foot Amazon warehouse. The project, which broke ground in 2023, is expected to open its commercial spaces along U.S. 192 by late 2027. City officials say the development will create approximately 2,500 jobs, though Amazon has not yet confirmed final employment numbers.
The artist's rendering of the West Melbourne warehouse shows a modern design with large loading bays and solar panel installations. Local residents have mixed reactions, with some praising the economic boost and others concerned about traffic. Amazon has not responded to requests for comment on community feedback. All facilities are part of the company's broader strategy to strengthen its presence in Florida's Space Coast region.
