AMZ Prep Names Thomas Gewarges COO to Expand Its Amazon-First Fulfillment Network Across DTC and Retail

Atlanta, Georgia | March 2026

AMZ Prep, an Amazon-first global logistics platform powering fast, reliable delivery for modern ecommerce brands, today announced the appointment of Thomas Gewarges as Chief Operating Officer.

In this role, Thomas will lead global operations and drive the expansion and standardization of AMZ Prep’s fulfillment network across North America, while strengthening infrastructure across direct-to-consumer and retail operations.

Thomas brings deep experience in large-scale logistics environments across both DTC and retail distribution. At Metro Supply Chain, he supported complex warehouse and distribution programs for bold leading consumer brands, managing high-volume, multi-channel fulfillment operations.

At AMZ Prep, he will focus on scaling the operational systems required to support fast, reliable, and Amazon-compliant fulfillment across channels. His mandate includes expanding network capacity, standardizing execution, and improving performance benchmarks across speed, accuracy, and reliability.

While AMZ Prep was built as a leading infrastructure platform for Amazon sellers, the company has evolved into a multi-channel fulfillment network. Today, more than 60% of its operations support direct-to-consumer and retail fulfillment, reflecting how modern brands operate across channels.

“AMZ Prep started with Amazon, but the future is multi-channel,” said Blair Forrest, Founder and Chief Marketing Officer of AMZ Prep. “Brands want Prime-level performance across their entire business, not just one channel. That requires deeper operational expertise across DTC and retail. Bringing in Thomas is a direct investment in that capability and in the brands we support.”

Founded in 2018, AMZ Prep has scaled into a global fulfillment platform designed for marketplace-driven commerce. The company operates 22 fulfillment centers across the United States, Canada, and Europe, with plans to add additional facilities in 2026 as part of its continued expansion.

Over the past year, AMZ Prep has grown more than 300%, driven by increasing demand from brands seeking faster, more flexible alternatives to fragmented logistics and single-channel solutions.

The platform supports over 500 million units annually into Amazon FBA and enables more than 2 billion dollars in gross merchandise value across direct-to-consumer, retail, and wholesale channels.

Recent expansion includes new facilities in Las Vegas, Pennsylvania, and Texas, alongside growing strategic partnerships across Amazon, Walmart, and other major commerce ecosystems.

AMZ Prep is building a Prime-like logistics network for modern brands, combining a dense fulfillment footprint, standardized operations, and intelligent routing to enable fast, reliable delivery across every channel.

“This is a direct investment in the future of AMZ Prep and the brands we support,” said Imtiaz Kermali, Chief Business Officer at AMZ Prep. “We are seeing rapid growth across DTC and retail, which requires a deeper operational backbone. At the same time, we are building AMZ Prep AI to bring more intelligence into how inventory is positioned, routed, and fulfilled across our network. The combination of strong operations and intelligent systems will define the next phase of logistics.”
