Amazon is requiring sellers to offer all their Pan-European FBA products on its Dutch marketplace. In six months’ time, a similar requirement will be introduced for Belgium. As a result, the international product selection on Amazon.nl and Amazon.com.be is set to increase.

One in three (34 percent) European small businesses selling on Temu said that they have started selling in new markets after joining the platform. And 50 percent said that they have added production capacity, hired additional staff or both.

Amazon has officially launched its Prime Air service in the United Kingdom. From its fulfillment center near Darlington, England, the company can now deliver parcels by drone. Customers living within a 12-kilometer radius can now have certain items delivered with this shipping method.

Chinese ecommerce platforms such as AliExpress, Banggood, Shein, and Temu are more popular than average in Southern Europe, according to research by the European Central Bank (ECB). Shoppers are attracted by low prices and a wide product range.

In the Netherlands, Amazon is the most expensive marketplace for online sellers. Looking at average commission fees, the platform stands out from other marketplaces with an average rate of 19.7 percent in August.
