Amazon is working with Congress to help small businesses grow!

It is learned that according to foreign media reports, Amazon will cooperate with the US Congress recently to support the development of small businesses and lower the threshold for companies to sell products online.

It is reported that currently, more than 500,000 small businesses in the United States sell goods on Amazon. Small businesses are vital to the development of the US economy. 99.9% of businesses in the United States are small businesses. In order to help small businesses develop their e-commerce business, Amazon invested more than $18 billion in logistics, tools, services, programs and personnel in 2020 alone.

It is reported that Amazon will work with Congress to help small businesses develop in the following three aspects:

• Increase access to capital and training. Amazon supports entrepreneurship by minorities, women, and veterans, providing them with online sales expertise and financial support.

• Increase access to digital connectivity. Congress will expand communications infrastructure and wireless connectivity in rural America to support more people accessing the internet, thereby increasing the customer base for businesses.

• Providing the United States Postal Service (USPS). Congress will pass postal reform legislation to increase the USPS's access to a wider customer base, enabling businesses to provide delivery services to more customers through the USPS and ensuring that the needs of corporate logistics operations are met.

It is understood that these measures can effectively address the development needs of small businesses in the United States today. In the future, Amazon will also implement more measures to promote the development of online business of sellers on its platform.
