Amazon maintains a sizeable presence in India, where it has created some 1 million jobs, according to its founder, Jeff Bezos but the E-commerce giant continues to banish Pakistani sellers. Pakistan is the only South Asian nation not on the list of 102 countries on its platform, despite being one of the biggest manufacturing economies in the region. However, Pakistani merchants have developed their own unique ways of sending their products abroad, termed as “Jugaad” in Urdu, a translation for “hacks” in English. Some creative hacks deployed by the sellers include using VPN services to access their seller central accounts from abroad – an Amazon portal for the merchants to buy and sell. Pakistani sellers are also following the practice of registering their businesses with overseas bank accounts and addresses and finding overseas business partners to help.
