With such impressing sales, the company plans to expand the site, which will lists 10,000 products including a bluetooth-enabled "smart bag," although it did not provide much details. As quoted "We do expect the broadening of the product categories and geographical expansion," said Peter Sauerborn, director of business development at Amazon who leads the store.

Inorder to list your product through Exclusives the brand has to agree that Amazon will be the exclusive third party retailer for their product. In exchange they will get access to the Fulfillment by Amazon program.

Rival companies have also been putting up similar setups. Will this be the next big thing under Amazon, let’s just wait and see. Credits on info for this news <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/us-amazon-com-exclusives-idUSKCN0V617X">http://www.reuters.com/</a>
