(Food-Beverage-News.Com, October 13, 2014 ) Clearwater, Florida -- Yumono, a major supplier of premium kitchen tools, today announced a partnership with Amazon.com to bring to market their Julienne Peeler and Vegetable Peeler line of kitchen gadgets. This launch marks a milestone for the manufacturer as their products were previously available only to the professional kitchen market.
"Today, I'm proud to announce a partnership with Amazon to host and offer our popular Quickpeel line of julienne peelers and shredder combo tools." said Seth Levy, co-founder of Yumono. "We know that along with the power of Amazon and the quality of our products and service, this partnership will allow us to provide the best of both worlds to a market wanting the best possible tool for the job."
While this isn't Yumono's first foray into the online retail space, it is certainly their largest. Amazon boasts significantly larger statistics than any other online retailer, namely volume, fulfillment and user base — and those numbers are significant. Approximetly 209 Million users are spending in excess of $74 Billion annually with Amazon handling the fulfillment of a vast majority of those orders. That is more volume than any other online retailer in the world.
"By utilizing Amazon for much of the product deployment volume and order fulfillment, we'll be better prepared to deliver the type of customer service and product development our public has become accustomed to," Said Mr. Levy. "And when you consider the delivery framework and resources Amazon already has in place to ship product quickly, they were the clear choice to assist us in getting Yumono products in the hands of our customers."
While the partnership doesn't guarantee success for Amazon or Yumono, it would appear the combination of manufacturer working closely with distributer has enough right that it could prove a successful model for years to come.
