Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), the largest online e-commerce company in the United States, is located in Seattle, Washington. Amazon is one of the first companies to operate e-commerce on the Internet. Founded in 1994, Amazon only operated online book sales business at the beginning, but now it has expanded to a wide range of other products. It has become the online retailer with the largest variety of goods in the world and the second largest Internet enterprise in the world. Under the company's name, it also includes AlexaInternet, a9, lab126 And Internet Movie Database (IMDB) and other subsidiaries.

Amazon and other distributors provide customers with millions of unique new, refurbished and second-hand goods, such as books, movies, music and games, digital downloads, electronics and computers, home gardening products, toys, baby products, food, clothing, footwear and jewelry, health and personal care products, sports and outdoor products, toys, cars and industrial products.

It was called Cadabra at first. It is a basic online bookstore. Later, it expanded to various categories. Amazon is developing towards diversified product sales, selling products ranging from music retail CDs, videos and DVD, software, home appliances, kitchen projects, tools, lawn and garden projects, toys, clothing, sporting goods, delicious food, jewelry, watches, health and personal care projects, beauty products, musical instruments, etc.

Incorporation

Amazon was founded by Jeff Bezos on July 5, 1994. It was originally called Cadabra. It is a basic online bookstore. However, Bezos, a visionary, saw the potential and characteristics of the network. When large physical bookstores provided 200000 books, online bookstores could provide more choices to readers than 200000 books.

Bezos renamed Cadabra after the Amazon River, which breeds the most species of creatures on the earth, and reopened it in July 1995. The company was originally registered in Washington State in 1994, but changed to Delaware in 1996, and was listed on May 15, 1997. The code is AMZN, and one share is $18

Product service

Kindle series products

After Amazon's success in digital music with Apple's iPod, Bezos began to make his own e-reader in 2004, hoping to succeed in this field. It hired Gregg Zehr, the former vice president of hardware engineering department of palmOne, to set up Lab126 in Silicon Valley for the secret development of e-readers.

network service

Amazon Web Services provides Amazon development customers with infrastructure Services based on their own back-end technology platform and provided through the Internet. With this technology platform, developers can realize almost all types of business. Examples of services provided by Amazon Web Services include Amazon EC2, Amazon S3, Amazon SimpleDB, Amazon Simple Queue Service, Amazon FPS, Amazon Mechanical Turk and Amazon CloudFront.

Project Aria

On March 14, 2014, Amazon will launch a smart phone called "Project Aria", which is much cheaper than the iPhone 6.

PrimeMusic

Amazon has quietly launched a new streaming music service, PrimeMusic, for Amazon's "gold member" users, which will provide more than one million songs for free.

According to media reports such as Sina, PrimeMusic is a free streaming music service provided by Amazon for "gold member" users, including more than 1 million songs and hundreds of playlists with unlimited times and no advertising. Prime Music is a free value-added service, which combines the functions of the existing free service Pandora and the paid service Beats Music. Amazon's new service has chosen a middle route, focusing on advertising free music playback, and has weakened its pursuit of playlists and manual song search.

Amazon Fresh

On October 17, 2014, Amazon will launch the fresh food e-commerce service "Amazon Fresh" in New York City. This will be the first time Amazon has launched the service on the East Coast.

Launch street convenience store

On the evening of October 11, 2016, the Wall Street Journal quoted many insiders as saying that Amazon would launch physical convenience stores to further expand its non-staple food business. These insiders said that Amazon plans to set up some small physical convenience stores to sell milk, meat and other perishable products that consumers can take home directly. In addition, consumers can also order peanut butter, grain or other videos with a longer shelf life through their mobile phones or the touch screen next to the convenience store, and then Amazon will deliver them on the same day.

Housekeeping services

In November 2016, Amazon listed the position of "Home Assistant" in the recruitment column of its website. Workers will help consumers clean their rooms, but the recruitment is limited to Seattle. It is understood that this position will belong to a service called Amazon Assistants. The recruited personnel will receive training before taking up their posts. In addition, they will enjoy medical insurance, company stock and other benefits.

Those who want to apply for this job must have at least 3 years of relevant work experience - 5 years is preferred. If they have a university degree or other qualifications such as technicians, they can increase the success rate of application.
