Amazon is extending its shipping services to third-party retailers. The business move will see Indian businesses and brands grow their markets overseas.

The shipping service, known as Amazon shipping, will collect parcels all days of the week and deliver them to customers on behalf of third-party merchants. Tech Crunch reports the company has invested over $6.5 billion in India in a span of seven years.

Amazon shipping provides services at affordable rates and will not charge extra for weekend deliveries. Customers will enjoy reliable support and conduct business contract-free.

The business is in strategic partnership with local companies dealing with order fulfillment systems like Shiprocket, Unicommerce, EasyEcom, ClickPost, and Vinculum. The business move passed the testing stage in India. Amazon shipping ships all cargo types, and companies can make up to 99 items per order.
