Riyadh: Amazon remains committed to supporting local SMBs and entrepreneurs in Saudi Arabia grow their business online and reach millions of customers. The company’s range of tools and resources, available to Amazon.sa sellers, continues to drive incremental benefits to local companies leveraging them. Through the Amazon.sa store and Amazon Seller Central, local businesses are empowered to grow their business successfully through analytical tools, world-class delivery options, and more, to help them become competitive.

One local company that has found great success on Amazon.sa is Kayan Medical, a local medical appliance distributor, who began ramping up their presence on the store more extensively in 2020.

Sakher Al-Amir, Chairman of the Board, Kayan, said: “When the company had a huge drop in sales in early 2020, the management decided to try to take advantage of existing online stores like Amazon. After registering as a seller and kicking off sales, we were surprised by the huge demand for our products, and we realized that selling through Amazon should not be temporary. As of 2021, our collaboration with Amazon has driven our sales to nine times what they were during 2019, in addition to streamlining our sales and delivery processes. Today, for us, it has become one of the main pillars of the company.”

Amazon currently operates five Fulfillment Centres, 24 Delivery Stations, and two Sort Centres across its owned and partner network in Saudi Arabia.

As Amazon continues to expand its operations throughout Saudi Arabia, the safety and wellbeing of the company’s employees, customers, and partners remain at the very top of its priorities.
