Amazon Australia 2018 Trends Report
Today we’ve launched our 2018 Trends Report, in which we look back at some of the highlights from our first year in Australia, what Aussies have loved, and some of the trends that have taken the country by storm. It’s incredible to think that just one year ago we launched our Australian store. It has been a brilliant journey and we’re so grateful to the millions of customers who have welcomed us.
Our first ever Aussie Black Friday
We are delighted to bring Australian customers deals on tens of thousands of products with our first ever Australian Black Friday and Cyber Monday Event on Amazon.com.au - with deals available across a wide selection of categories including Video Games, Fashion, Beauty, Electronics, Books, and more. Deals start at 00:01 on Friday 23rd November and will continue until 23:59 on Monday 26th November.
Amazon Fashion Supporting Local Australian Brands
We are excited to announce the launch of the Amazon Fashion 2018 Local Brand Award, giving up and coming Aussie brands the opportunity to win a $75,000 marketing package to accelerate their growth and introduce them to more customers around the country. These 15 fashion houses offer everything from men’s leather shoes, to sustainable bags and clutches, to Bondi-born sunglasses.
Stock up your pantry with Amazon
We’ve all had to drag heavy bags home from the local supermarket at some point, the plastic handles cutting off circulation to your fingers and the excessive weight giving you the unenviable posture of The Simpsons’ Mr Burns.
You’ll be jet-set with our new Travel Store
With the weather heating up, and the tantalising promise of sun-kissed beaches and new adventures just over the horizon, it’s time to turn away from your hot water bottle and electric blanket and start planning your next trip.
Amazon Announces Paw-fect New Category for Australian Pets
While Australia’s humans have had almost a year to enjoy the wide range of products on offer at Amazon.com.au, the country’s furry, feathered and finned residents haven’t had their turn. Until now. Whether they spend their days swimming, scratching or snoozing, Australia’s animal companions will now be able to get all their pet needs met through the newly launched Amazon Pet Supplies.
Amazon Father’s Day Gift Guide
If you want to make sure Dad’s face is plastered with a big ol’ grin this Father’s Day, the task may not be as Herculean as it first appears. While it’s all well and good to spend hours in pursuit of the perfect gift, if Dad’s being honest the thing that will really make his Father’s Day is the reliable gift card.
In search of a better night’s sleep
With four in ten Australians experiencing inadequate sleep, the secret to a good night’s sleep isn’t as far away as we might think, with simple changes and a set routine often being the answer to a good night’s sleep.
