Amazon.com Inc. will offer to deliver vendors’ goods to customers in other European Union countries, as the e-commerce giant seeks to dominate online deliveries across the region.
European sellers on Amazon Marketplace can now ship inventory to one of Amazon’s 29 distribution centers on the continent, where the company will store the goods for them. When the sellers receive an order from a customer in another EU country, Amazon will ship the goods to the buyer’s home.
