The event witnessed active participation from over 100 entrepreneurs, including women entrepreneurs, e-commerce players, retailers, artisans, and other local businesses.
Amazon Global Selling collaborated with logistics partners such as Shiprocket and Safexpress to facilitate the onboarding of sellers, artisans, retailers, small merchants, and traders onto their platform.
