DESCRIPTION

More than 300 million customers shop on Amazon, and every day customers search, buy, and review products sold by third-party sellers alongside products sold by Amazon. Since 2000, Amazon has provided this virtual shelf space to individuals and businesses of all sizes, helping them reach hundreds of millions of customers, build their brands, and grow their businesses. To date, these third-party products account for more than half of all units sold in our business. Expansion countries are currently ramping up their efforts and creating a dynamic and fast-paced environment in which they can operate.

Given the increasing complexity of today’s e-commerce and the growing opportunities, the Selling Partner 360 team is committed to unlocking the full potential of every Amazon selling partner.
