Maltese retailers can now sell their products on Amazon

The Malta Communications Authority is pleased to announce that following discussions with Amazon, Maltese individuals and businesses can now sell their products on the Amazon websites. 

Sellers with Amazon have several advantages, such as joining a network of over 2 million active sellers generating billions of revenue on Amazon every year, access to security and fraud protection systems and access to powerful reporting tools to monitor and improve the online presence. Furthermore, Amazon has built selling tools that empower sellers with the ability to reach customers in 189 countries.

Amazon.com opened on the World Wide Web in July 1995. The company is guided by four principles: customer obsession rather than competitor focus, passion for invention, commitment to operational excellence, and long-term thinking.

According to an MCA official, this development is another important milestone in realising the objectives of the National e-Commerce strategy which was launched in 2014. One of the most important pillars of the strategy is to address the challenges that microenterprises are facing in light of today’s digitally driven world. The MCA has already launched a series of initiatives aimed at facilitating the proliferation of eCommerce activity and this measure will give the opportunity to local enterprises to compete at the same level as other enterprises across the globe.
