It’s an important and celebrated concept that reminds consumers of the benefits of buying products from U.S. businesses. Now that idea is coming to online shopping in the form of “Amazon Storefronts,” a new store for customers to shop exclusively from U.S. businesses selling on Amazon.com. With ‘Storefronts’, customers can shop a curated collection of products and deals from U.S. small and medium-sized businesses, and learn more about some of these businesses through featured videos and profile stories. Washington Post Columnist, author and nationally-renowned business expert Gene Marks joined Coffee With America to talk about what this will offer consumers and small and medium-sized businesses.
