With Fulfilment by Amazon, manufacturers and sellers can store their products in Amazon's warehouse; and Amazon packs and delivers the orders to customers, provides customer service and handles returns.
Amazon has created one of the most advanced fulfilment networks in the world and FBA makes it possible for businesses to take advantage of Amazon's investment in technology and innovation to serve their customers better.
Talking about the massive opportunity for Indian businesses, especially SMEs, Amit Deshpande, Director Seller Services, Amazon India said "In recent years, the growth of global e-commerce has made export of products an intensifying force in India's foreign trade, offering millions of enterprises, most of which are small and medium Businesses (SMB's), an opportunity to expand beyond the domestic market.
"There is great demand for Indian products, not only from the millions of Indians living abroad but global consumers across ethnicities who benefit from a vast & unique selection at reasonable prices from Indian sellers. We look forward to helping businesses navigate through the complexities of selling globally and develop an international footprint by leveraging the enormous demand for their products across borders and thus transform the way India makes and sells."
