Amazon Founder and CEO Jeff Bezos said that Amazon.in is the fastest growing marketplace in India, and the most visited site on both desktop and mobile.
In a note to shareholders, Bezos said, “The Amazon.in mobile shopping app was also the most downloaded shopping app in India in 2017, according to App Annie. Prime added more members in India in its first year than any previous geography in Amazon’s history.”
“Prime selection in India now includes more than 40 million local products from third-party sellers, and Prime Video is investing in India original video content in a big way, including two recent premiers and over a dozen new shows in production," he added.
Amazon has been extremely bullish on India and has invested billions already to grow this market and to compete with the likes of Flipkart. At stake is a market where Internet users are growing exponentially.
