A year ago, Amazon launched Amazon Storefronts in the US, a new store for customers to shop exclusively from US small and medium-sized businesses selling on Amazon.
At launch, customers could browse a curated collection of over one million products, and deals from nearly 20,000 US small and medium-sized businesses and in the past year this has grown to over 2.5 million products from nearly 30,000 companies. It covers a variety of product categories, ranging from Home & Kitchen, Lawn & Gardening, Electronics, Beauty & Grooming, Pet Supplies, Handmade Artisan products, and more.
In the last twelve months, US small and medium-sized businesses with products in Amazon Storefronts have sold more than 250 million items to more than 70 million unique customers.
