The effects of the COVID-19 outbreak were felt throughout the world. Amazon.com, one
of the top global online shopping organisations, took steps to get their hands on
inventory as the COVID-19 outbreak continued to spread. Amazon.com sources many
products it sells on its e-platform from China, where plants were shuttered and
production for all sorts of products slowed. On 4 March 2020, the company issued a
warning that their Prime service would be slower than normal as more consumers chose
to shop online amid virus concerns. Amazon.com Prime is a paid subscription service
offered by the company that gives users access to services that would otherwise be
unavailable, or cost extra, to the typical Amazon.com user, for example free two-day
delivery. Amazon.com CEO Jeff Bezos spoke at a luncheon about the increase in
business, stating that “for everyone to be able to continue staying home because of the
high risk, our employees are expected to make deliveries of essential goods, even more
so than before the pandemic”.
