Amazon plans $5 bn of small-ticket exports from India in shift from China

Amazon Inc expects to help Indian exporters sell about $5 billion worth of small-ticket items through its platform this year in markets such as the United States and Britain, up from nearly $3 billion in 2023, a company official said.

Under the Amazon Global Selling programme, launched in 2015, nearly 150,000 small exporters across India are expected to sell their products directly to overseas consumers using the company’s e-commerce platform.
