Claudia Vorlaufer, Earls vice president of procurement and logistics business, said: “At first, Earls viewed Amazon as a supplier of small-batch specialty products in the US because these products could not be easily purchased from our supplier network. Along the way, we're also exploring new forms of partnering with Amazon. Amazon Business not only provides a rich selection of products, makes it easy to place and receive orders, but also customizes shipping solutions for us to help us receive larger goods and combine shipments. In the future, we will also have the opportunity to purchase more products through Amazon Business. Abbottt, Premiere Creative’s creative director.
