List of Amazon brands

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from AmazonBasics)

Amazon offers multiple lines of privately labeled products. These are available on Amazon.com, Amazon Fresh, Prime Pantry, Prime Now, Amazon Go, and Whole Foods Market. Amazon houses its in-house brand offerings under the “Our Brands” label, which is separate from exclusive brands. Exclusive brand items are third party offerings sold exclusively through Amazon.[1] Some of Amazon's store brands require an Amazon Prime membership to purchase.

Pinzon

[edit]

In August 2005,[2] Amazon began selling products under its own private label, Pinzon. The trademark applications indicated that the label would be used for textiles, kitchen utensils, and other household goods.[2] In March 2007, the company applied to expand the trademark to cover a more diverse list of goods.[3] The brand was officially launched in 2009. Along with AmazonBasics, it was Amazon's first in-house brand.[4] In September 2008, Amazon filed to have the name registered. USPTO has finished its review of the application and it was officially granted in 2016.
