Amazon Launches in Belgium. What Does This Mean for Brands?

Blogs | May 17, 2023

As of October 18th Amazon has launched a marketplace in Belgium, making it the tenth active Amazon marketplace in Europe. With more than 180 million products available across 30 categories, consumers can shop from a range of new and well-established brands across Belgium. Amazon’s pan-European network allows third-party sellers across the continent to easily bring their products to market, with the advantage of active reviews appearing on Amazon Belgium’s platform. At launch there are over 100 million Prime eligible products ready for sale.

How can this impact your brand?

– You will see an increase in third-party sellers from Europe joining the marketplace and potentially listing your products for sale
– Third-party sellers listing your products on the marketplace could be sourcing from other regions that are not authorized for sale in Belgium
– The products available for sale in Belgium may potentially be listed in the wrong language variation on the packaging which can be confusing to consumers
