Amazon announced its commitment to creating 2 million direct and indirect jobs in India by the end of 2025. To date, the company has generated 1.4 million jobs across industries such as IT, e-commerce, logistics, manufacturing, content creation, and skill development.
In addition, Amazon has raised its export target four times higher, now aiming to achieve $80 billion in cumulative exports by 2030. This ambitious goal reflects Amazon’s confidence in India’s potential as a global export hub.
At the first Smbhav Summit in 2020, Amazon set major goals to support small businesses. These included digitizing 10 million small enterprises and reaching $20 billion in exports. According to Samir Kumar, Country Manager of Amazon India, the company has already surpassed these targets. Amazon digitized 12 million small businesses, completing this goal a year ahead of schedule. Additionally, the company has achieved $13 billion in cumulative exports and has significantly contributed to job creation in India.
Samir Kumar highlighted Amazon’s dedication to its promises, stating that the company has invested considerable resources to help integrate small businesses into the digital economy. These efforts not only support India’s economy but also strengthen the country’s global trade position. Amazon’s continued investment in job creation, digital transformation, and exports demonstrates its long-term commitment to India’s growth and development.
