History

Historical Context

Amazon opened its Marketplace in 2000, letting third-party sellers reach its vast customer base; by 2002 those sellers generated a 400% sales jump, establishing the model that eBay, Shopify and later TikTok Shop (2% U.S. share in July 2024) would emulate. The trend drives today’s mid-size brands to view social-commerce platforms as primary sales channels.
