What is Amazon?

Amazon is a multinational technology company from America and based in Seattle.

Founded on July 5, 1994 by Jeff Bezos in Bellevue, Amazon is considered as one of the most influential economic forces in the world. Initially, the company started as an online trading place for books but later it expanded to sell software, video games, electronics, food, toys, apparel, furniture, and jewelry. In 2017, Amazon became the most valuable retailer in the United States, surpassing its most influential competitor Walmart.

While delivering thousands of product categories worldwide, Amazon is thinking to enhance its business even more.
