Amazon Prime Day: Mark Your Calendars for June 21 - 22

Amazon confirmed that its yearly sales, commonly referred to as Prime Day, will commence on Monday and Tuesday, June 21 to 22.

Amazon Prime Day experienced a massive delay in 2020 from its usual schedule every mid-July due to COVID-19. The pandemic took a toll on the event when Amazon Prime Day got postponed.

However, CNBN stated that despite the challenges of pushing forward with Amazon Prime Day, Amazon's third-party sellers, both small and midsized businesses, garnered more than $3.5 billion during the annual event. Amazon stated that the sellers had a 60% increase in sales in 2020 than 2019's revenue.

Nonetheless, Amazon never disclosed the total sales of Amazon Prime Day 2020.
