told third-party sellers in an email on Friday that it will raise fulfillment fees by just 3% next year.
The move shows the importance with which Amazon views growing its third-party seller base, even if it results in smaller profits for the company.Amazon is raising the fulfillment fees it charges third-party sellers in the US by just 3% next year — despite having spent a record amount in improving its storage and shipping infrastructure this year.
The company added that it's keeping the fee "below industry average," even though 2019 was its "largest one-year investment" period in fulfillment infrastructure.
