This report has four sections: the Amazon Landscape, Amazon Category Analysis: Financial Services, Amazon Category Analysis: Food Products, and Amazon Category Analysis: Pet Products.

Even while Amazon’s sales have surpassed $200 billion, its heady growth continues. Packaged Facts estimates Amazon’s U.S. gross merchandise sales will comprise 43% of U.S. e-commerce sales in 2019, up from 28% in 2015, propelled by a combination of increasing retail category depth and breadth; increasing depth and breadth of its Amazon Prime loyalty program; significant technological innovation; and a major foray into omni-channel retailing. And yet the tide may be changing, as more and more retailers adapt to omni-channel realities.

For participants in markets affected by its growth, understanding Amazon’s value proposition and its evolving relationship with the consumer across retail categories and channels is of paramount importance.
