The company is also partnering with over 100,000 creators through the Amazon Influencer Program, featuring actors, tech reviewers, and chefs who will generate shoppable content to showcase the best deals. Prime members will benefit from 'Prime Dhamaka Offers' during the entire sale period. This year's festival will expand beyond shopping, including entertainment options on Prime Video and MX Player, featuring an array of films, web series, and reality shows. In anticipation of the event, Amazon has significantly expanded its operational capacity by adding 45 new delivery stations, 12 fulfillment centers, and six sortation centers. This expansion is designed to facilitate quicker deliveries, including same-day service to 50% more cities and next-day delivery to double the locations compared to last year. Additionally, Amazon has created over 150,000 seasonal job opportunities to support this scaling effort. The Great Indian Festival has evolved into one of the largest shopping events for Amazon India, offering extensive deals on smartphones, laptops, fashion, home appliances, consumer electronics, and essential everyday items.
