Business Wire3 days ago
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amazon announced today that Prime Day 2025 was its biggest Prime Day event ever and that customers saved billions on deals across more than 35 product categories, more savings than any previous Prime Day event. This year's Prime Day event was bigger than any previous four-day period that included a Prime Day event, with record sales and more items sold during the four days. Members saved big on best-selling brands like Dyson, medicube, and Philips Sonicare.
"We're thrilled to see record savings for our customers, who found great prices on the everyday essentials and products they love."
Amazon Prime brings members fantastic savings, convenience, and world-class entertainment—and this year's four-day Prime Day event gave them more time than ever to shop and save. Prime members scored deals across categories including electronics, beauty, and household essentials on best-selling products like Apple AirPods Pro 2, BIODANCE Bio Collagen Real Deep Mask, and Dawn Platinum Powerwash Dish Spray. Prime members purchased millions of Alexa-enabled devices, and the Ring Battery Doorbell and Fire TV Stick HD were two of the event's best-selling items. The savings didn't stop there—Prime members stocked up on grocery deals like 50% off all ice cream and frozen desserts at Whole Foods Market and $30 off purchases of $150 or more across all Amazon Fresh selection, including fresh produce and other perishable items.
This year's Prime Day experience was enhanced by Alexa+—Amazon's next-generation personal assistant now available in Early Access to millions of customers—along with the AI-powered shopping assistant, Rufus, and AI Shopping Guides. These features helped customers easily discover deals and get product information, complementing the fast, free delivery that Prime members enjoy year-round.
"This year's extended Prime Day event delivered incredible savings to our members across millions of deals," said Doug Herrington, CEO of Amazon Worldwide Stores. "We're thrilled to see record savings for our customers, who found great prices on the everyday essentials and products they love. This event wouldn't be possible without the dedication of our employees, delivery partners, vendors, and sellers who worked tirelessly to serve our customers. Their efforts made this our biggest Prime Day yet, and I'm grateful for their contributions."
Independent sellers—most of which are small and medium-sized businesses—also achieved record sales and a record number of items sold. 'Prime Day 2025 was our most successful Amazon shopping event since launching our store in 2019,' said Anne Maza, co-owner of the small business Olivia Garden. 'We saw impressive sales not just on our Prime exclusive deals but across our entire catalog. Beyond the immediate revenue boost, we're especially thrilled about the increased brand awareness and the acquisition of new customers through the event.'

Amazon begins search for warehouse workers

An event has been held to recruit up to 2,000 workers for Amazon's new warehouse near Hull. The retailer teamed up with Hull and East Riding councils to stage the event at the city's Central Library in Albion Street. The facility at Melton West Business Park is expected to open later this year as part of Amazon's £40bn UK expansion plan. Councillor Paul Drake-Davis, Hull City Council's portfolio holder for economic renewal, said: "Amazon's investment demonstrates the confidence that global companies have in the region's economy." Information was provided about warehouse operative roles. Beth Dawson, who attended the event, said: "I thought this would be a great opportunity for me because I keep getting rejected from jobs. I hope I'll be able to get a job and start as soon as possible." She said it was "really hard" to find employment and welcomed the opportunity to meet with Amazon representatives. "I've always thought somewhere like Amazon would be a great opportunity," she said. Another jobseeker, Hussain, who did not want to give his surname, added: "I'm looking for a job and I heard about it through the employment hub. I'd like an administrative job but at the end of the day any kind of job because I really badly need a job." Amazon spokesman Neil Williams said: "There's a range of jobs and a wide variety of roles ranging from IT through to robotics engineers and HR professionals. There's a huge range of skills we will be looking for in recruitment and we're looking for people who want to develop a career." Drake-Davis said the decision by Amazon to invest is "a real shot in the arm for the area's employment opportunities".

France's prime minister wants to cut 2 public holidays to save money for the indebted economy

PARIS — France's prime minister proposed on Tuesday the elimination of two public holidays from the country's annual calendar — possibly Easter Monday and the day marking the Allied victory over the Nazis — to save money in next year's budget. That's among a raft of spending cuts laid out by Prime Minister Francois Bayrou in a sweeping, and potentially doomed, budget plan. He argued that removing two state holidays would bring in tax revenues generated from economic activity, contributing to around 44 billion euros ($51.3 billion) in overall savings.
