Over the year to 31 December 2021, Amazon’s net sales in the UK rose 20.5% to $31.9bn (£23.6bn). However, compared to two years ago before the start of the pandemic, the figure is up 82.1% from $17.5bn (£13.0bn).
Patrick O’Brien, research director at GlobalData, commented: “While other major digital players appear to have peaked earlier in the pandemic, UK consumers show little let-up in their reliance on Amazon. It’s a very strong performance against an exceptional comparative.”

NamNews Implications:
- No surprises, hopefully…
- Given their high degree of customer-centricity.
- And saturation coverage.
- Trickling down into cost-effective fulfilment.
- With rivals trailing behind.
- Best for suppliers to be on board optimising this mix…
- …rather than trying to build up Amazon rivals in order to spread risk.
