Executive Summary

Two major retail trends are fueling Amazon’s fastest-growing categories in 2022:

• Consumers continue to buy more essential goods online, like groceries, household products, and toiletries.
• The slow but sure “return to normal” phase of the pandemic has released pent-up demand for apparel, accessories, and beauty products.
