ISLAMABAD: US e-commerce giant Amazon has approved to add Pakistan to its approved sellers' list, a development that is being seen as a major boost to the countrys e-commerce industry. As per details, Amazon's sellers' list will create opportunities for the exporters to sell their products through the platform, giving them access to market their products through the 3P model, which brands the owners with a third party relationship to retail sell directly to buyers through the marketplace. Amazon also offers the 1P model for mass producers, who want to produce for Amazon brand items. The opportunity gives way to various Pakistani companies and brands, which have been selling their products through their overseas offices. The inclusion of Pakistan in the Amazon seller's list will help promote more businesses and online buyers to reach the Pakistani brands.
