Alongside being the most downloaded online marketplace app, the Amazon Shopping app was also the most downloaded shopping app in the country overall. With so many downloads, the competition among leading sellers on Amazon’s Canadian platform is steep. The consumer electronics brand JETech came out on top as of September 2023, ranking number one as the seller on amazon.ca by number of positive reviews. The second-hand e-commerce brand Momox followed in second.
