Speaking on the Amazon Prime Day date reveal, as well as the event's new initiatives, Doug Gurr, Amazon UK Country Manager said that:

“After a tough six months for everyone, we’re committed to making this the most successful Prime Day ever for small businesses, and excited for members to discover the very best from artisans and entrepreneurs in the UK, whilst saving big on everything they need and love from the comfort of their homes.”
