Amazon Business has unveiled a new feature set to make it easier for users to support small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with your large-scale procurement operations.

The new ‘Prefer Small and Medium Enterprises’ tool is designed to boost the discoverability of the tens of thousands of SMEs operating on Amazon Business. It’s designed to cater to the needs of multinational enterprises, FTSE100 companies, universities, government agencies, and healthcare organizations looking to support up-and-coming businesses. The free feature highlights sellers with fewer than 250 employees and less than €50 million in revenue to procurement workers.

Big businesses can now support SMEs when buying items

The announcement underscores the importance of SMEs to the economy, affirming that they contribute significantly to both employment and turnover within the private sector. The enhancement comes as a direct response to Amazon’s own research, which suggests that SMEs face challenges in scaling their businesses online effectively.
