🚨Breaking: #Amazon to Launch Temu-Like Storefront in the U.S. 🇺🇸

In a meeting with Chinese sellers, Amazon revealed plans to launch a Temu-like discount store on its U.S. marketplace.

The main difference to Amazon's existing online store?

» 𝗢𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗮.

Which means that shipping speeds won't compare to Prime and could take anywhere between 9 and 11 days.

But in exchange, shoppers can expect much higher discounts.

The move directly responds to rival offers from Temu and Shein, who have gained significant traction among price-sensitive customers in recent years.

The new discount store is expected to open in fall 2024, right before the peak holiday season.
