Amazon Business is very similar to Amazon -- only with added features tailored to the needs of businesses. It supports manufacturers and distributors across most product categories. Hundreds of thousands of business sellers offer products in categories such as healthcare, lab and science, industrial, MRO, (Maintenance, Repairs, and operations) IT, hospitality and foodservice, office, breakroom and more.

Millions of business customers from industries around the world purchase on Amazon Business, including half of the Fortune 100 companies. The thing to remember about Amazon Business is it has features and benefits tailored to the needs of businesses. For instance, if a user creates a free account, they will be able to browse a wide selection of items available at special pricing if purchased in bulk. Users can create multi-user accounts, to allow team members to buy as well.
