How to Protect Your Amazon Listings From Copycats

Some of the ecommerce giant's attempts to address the problem

There are two ways to sell products—your own or someone else’s—on Amazon: directly, under your company’s name, or by selling to Amazon, which sells for you. There’s also a hybrid option in which a brand or seller sells some SKUs to Amazon and sells others on the platform itself.

Amazon has established a Code of Conduct for its sellers.
