 Map of Amazon Fulfillment Centers by Address via a Folium Map This is still a pretty raw map, but I have used the Folium mapping library in Python to build a Flask app on Microsoft's Azure cloud. ( it does not render on Google's Blogger    platform.) It is an interactive map. The markers, when clicked, display the facility address, but can be modified to popup any content that can be rendered in HTML.

The map will begin soomed on Coffeville, Ks! Click the minus sign 7-10 times to see the whole US, and the 182 locations, as of 2019. Here is a clip view:

The group — known as the Amazon Labor Union — tried unsuccessfully in October to get the required number of signatures in order to trigger a vote. This time around, the group's president, former Amazon employee Chris Smalls, says they now have enough signatures to move forward. ADVERTISING He's fighting for improved working conditions, especially as it related to COVID-19.
