Amazon has announced for Prime Day that members can shop products from small and medium business brands by looking out for the new Small Business badge.

The badge makes it easier for customers to identify products from small and medium business brands and artisans. For more information about the new Small Business Badge and to shop curated collections for Prime Day, visit amazon.co.uk/supportsmall.

If you’re registered with Brand Registry or Amazon Handmade and your business is eligible to be identified as a Small Business in the Amazon store, all products within your registered brands will now automatically receive the new Small Business Badge.

Eligibility for the badge has raised some eyebrows, as Amazon define a small business as one with fewer than 250 employees, an annual turnover of less than €50 million and a balance sheet of under €42 million. That’s not particularly small and so most independent businesses trading on Amazon could qualify for the new badge.

Still, customers can save up to 40% on selected products from products with the Small Business Badge and today we have a sneak preview of some of the deals that will be on offer starting tomorrow when Prime Day kicks off:

More than 50% of products sold on Amazon in the UK are from small and medium sized businesses, and Prime Day can have a huge impact on these selling partners. Last year, Prime Day saw customers spend over $1.9bn globally on more than 70 million small business products during the promotional period. And this year we have made it even easier for customers to support the 65,000 UK small businesses that sell on Amazon by looking for the new Small Business Badge.

  1. Lots of eligible sellers still finding that there is no badge displaying for them yet! And I wonder if there will be a new filter created for it once it is fully in operation?
