Problem statement
The e-commerce marketplace is currently optimized for individual consumers (B2C), which fundamentally limits its ability to handle specialized, high-volume business-to-business (B2B) transactions. This structural limitation prevents the platform from maximizing its sales potential from large corporate buyers.
Achieving the mission
The goal is to expand the platform's seller base into the high-value B2B market by providing specialized tools (like bulk pricing and certifications) that streamline large-quantity transactions and drive consistent growth in sales volume.

Here's what our customers say
★★★★★
High-Volume, Low Hassle
Switching our inventory to Amazon Business was the best decision we made for profit margins this year. The business customers consistently place massive bulk orders, often 5-10 times the size of a standard retail purchase. Best of all, our return rate for B2B transactions has plummeted, saving us significant time and fulfillment costs.

★★★★★
Pricing Power and Predictability
The B2B pricing tools are a game-changer; we can easily set quantity-tiered discounts to secure large corporate accounts that we could never reach before. This program provides reliable, predictable volume sales, transforming our business from chasing small, erratic consumer orders to managing stable, high-value procurement deals.
