In this guest post today, Martin Bysh, CEO of Huboo, takes a prosaic view of what the Amazon border policy changes will mean for merchants and how they can mitigate the effect it will have on their businesses: This has been a tough 12 months for third-party Amazon marketplace sellers.

My mum is in her mid 80s and as you might imagine not one of the earliest adopters of the Internet. However the pandemic changed all that and I immediately started doing her grocery shopping and lined up a milk man so that she could isolate. Since then however, she has discovered the joy of being able to remain independent and started doing some of her own shopping, but it’s not entirely online – she’s discovered the convenience of click & ring.
