E-commerce also named electronic commerce. It allows customers to electronically exchange goods and services with no barriers of time or distance. More and more industries are adopting e-commerce since this is a trend in the future. Many companies have made significant achievements in e-commerce. I believe that everyone must have consumed from these companies.

Amazon founded in July 1994. The company was initially named “Cadabra.” Amazon.com launched in 1995. The company initially started as an online bookstore that later diversified to products, including media, electronics, apparel, furniture, food, toys, and jewelry. Nowadays, Amazon expanded to many countries like Canada, England, France, Germany. Amazon has become the uncontested global leader of e-commerce and developed further into brick-and-mortar retail with the acquisition of Whole Foods Market, as well as publishing, electronics, cloud computing, video streaming, and production.
Amazon is one of the most popular online marketplaces used by both individuals as well as businesses. Moreover, the site is available in many different countries and languages. Amazon Kindle is one of its most popular products, as well as the Amazon app store. Lastly, Amazon offers software and infrastructure solutions for businesses and individuals.
I am most excited about Amazon’s announcement of a two-day delivery service in 2018, Amazon Prime, and had surpassed 100 million subscribers all over the world. Now when I buy things on Amazon, I will use Amazon Prime since students can get a discount when subscribing to Amazon Prime. It’s very convenient and fast.

Walmart founded in October 1969. Walmart is the world’s largest retail corporation, operating hypermarkets, department stores, and grocery stores. A leader in the United States, it is also engaged in Canada, Mexico, and several other countries through subsidiaries. Walmart not only has many retailers but also has its own online shop. Walmart operates approximately 11,500 stores in 27 countries and eCommerce websites in 10 countries. Its online shop sells a diversified range of products, from food to electronics, from fashion to pharmacy, from home equipment to auto-parts.
As the world’s largest retailer, Walmart is on a mission to help people save money and live better. So that sometimes I buy things from Walmart’s website because the price of items is lower.

Home Depot founded in 1978. The company is the largest hardware and home improvement supplies retailing company in the United States, with more than 2,200 stores throughout the country. Home Depot sells tools, construction products, home and garden equipment furniture, and associated services.
Home Depot provides a next-day delivery service that is very fast and convenient. So that when I move out or send a package, I will buy some different size moving boxes, packaging tape, and perforated bubble cushion wrap from the Home Depot website.
