Amazon Inc., headquartered in Seattle Washington, is the second largest employer in the United States, It operates its business in sixteen countries where items can be shipped to over one hundred different countries.
In 2017, $550 million dollars were invested in Italy to build a substantial presence. E-commerce sales are expected to grow 17% year-over-year with already over $20 billion in sales as of 2016.
Eleven months ago Amazon launched the new international shipping mode. This made it possible for customers, who live in remote areas, where Amazon does not maintain a presence the ability to order products. The product range initially is limited, but more products should be added with time. Forty-five million products are shipping globally from U.S. sellers.
