American multinational technology company, Amazon has finally added Pakistan to its authentic seller’s list. This means that Pakistanis will now be able to sell their products on the site.
Amazon, owned by Jeff Bezos, is the world’s largest online retailer with footfall from around the world. This will prove to be a game-changer for our economy. There is no doubt that under Imran Khan’s government, Pakistan has improved its game in the digital world. The credit goes to all ambassadors & counsel generals, including Mr. Omar Gajial, who has worked with Amazon for 5 Years.
For the development, Prime Minister Imran Khan’s aide tweeted: “What could not be achieved during the last 10 years in the history of Pakistan has finally been done by the present government.”
An important milestone of the e-Commerce policy achieved has been through teamwork by many people across the globe, says Adviser to Prime Minister of Pakistan for Commerce and Investment, Abdul Razak Dawood.

Pakistan’s inclusion in #Amazon seller list is a brilliant opportunity for Pakistani merchants to export the goods internationally and would help them in becoming self-employed by having their own e-commerce presence on a marketplace which has a large customer base.
