Amazon leverages Accelerator for Pvt. Labels

Amazon India has reached out to a few select sellers to be a part of Accelerator, by which private labels i.e. the most searched terms of colour and products would be shared for companies to leverage.

Amazon has over 5,00,000 sellers in India, which explains why it’s important for sellers that consumers see their product first. Various factors go into determining top results, like reviews, ranking, price and relevance.
