Unpacking 'Amazon Haul' and Navigating E-commerce Threats with DukaBrain
Amazon made waves recently, launching a new sales initiative in the United Kingdom known as "Amazon Haul." As reported by Retail Gazette this program features thousands of items priced at £20 or less across diverse categories, effectively positioning Amazon as a fierce competitor against value-oriented platforms like Temu. Clearly, Amazon’s strategy is to cater to economically conscious consumers, offering both value and variety.
While this might appear concerning for smaller e-commerce brands, fret not. We at DukaBrain are here to help you navigate this terrain.

Price sensitivity is real: Consumers continuously seek value for their money. Small e-commerce businesses need to balance their pricing strategy to attract and retain customers.
