B2B Product Opportunities Reports

Using demand signals like purchasing trends, new product requests and requests for quantity discounts from our growing Amazon Business customer base coupled with selling partners’ history Business-to-Business (B2B) Product Opportunities Reports create product selection recommendations.

We've added two new reportTypes: GET_B2B_PRODUCT_OPPORTUNITIES_RECOMMENDED_FOR_YOU and GET_B2B_PRODUCT_OPPORTUNITIES_NOT_YET_ON_AMAZON to the Reports API for the US, UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Japan, and India marketplaces.

GET_B2B_PRODUCT_OPPORTUNITIES_RECOMMENDED_FOR_YOU

Using a combination of Amazon Business customer demand signals and the selling partner's current product listings, we recommend products that might be a good opportunity for their business on Amazon. Each report offers 1,000 recommendations.

The report is refreshed weekly, and includes the following fields:

  • asin: The Amazon Standard Identification Number of the item
  • itemName: The title of the product.
  • brand: The brand name of the product.
  • lowestPriceInTheLastWeek: The lowest priced offer on the product in the last week. Excludes shipping price.
  • offerCount: The total number of active offers on each product (including Amazon Retail).
  • hasAmazonOffer: A value of ‘true’ means that an active Amazon offer exists on the product. A ‘false’ means there are no active Amazon offers for the product.
  • hasFBAOffer: A value of ‘true’ means at least one Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) offer exists on the product. A ‘false’ means there are no Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) offers for the product.
  • pageViews: A general measure of how many times the product has been viewed in the past 30 days displayed as ‘High’, ‘Medium’, or ‘Low’. A ‘High’ means that the product is in the top 40% of the product’s Category. A ‘Medium’ means the product is in the next 40%. A ‘Low’ means that the product is in the bottom 20% of its Category.
  • b2bSalesRank: The sales rank of the product, at the Category level, based only on Amazon Business customer purchases.
  • reviewCount: The total number of customer reviews on each product.

Account Health Seller Performance Report

We've added a new reportType: GET_V2_SELLER_PERFORMANCE_REPORT to the Reports API for all marketplaces.
