BRUSSELS, Oct 8 (Reuters) - U.S. tech giant Amazon AMZN.O plans to invest 1 billion euros  ($1.16 billion) in Belgium from 2025 to 2027, newspaper L'Echo reported on Wednesday.

The company said it will develop infrastructure and strengthen its partnership with Belgian mail operator Bpost BPOST.BR and local small and medium companies, the newspaper reported.

The company aims to enhance its supply chains in Belgium to be able to offer same-day delivery, the newspaper said, quoting Amazon's head for Belgium and the Netherlands, Eva Faict.

Amazon employs 400 people in Belgium and has invested about 800 million euros over the past ten years, L'Echo said.

Spokespeople for Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
