“The ecommerce giant has released a new blog post in which it revealed that it delivered more than 1.5bn toys, home products, beauty and personal care products and electronics to its customers all over the world.
At the same time, third party sales on Amazon rose by more than 50 percent year-over-year worldwide.
If this turns out to be true, it would represent a year-over-year increase of 28 to 38 percent and mark the first time the ecommerce giant has brought in over $100bn in a single quarter.
According to Mastercard SpendingPulse, ecommerce sales in the US grew by 47.2 percent year-over year from November 1 to December 24 as more consumers preferred to shop from the safety of their homes.”
