An advert on Amazon reveals that the web giant is working on a new e-store. After jeans and designer jewellery, the online retailer is approaching manufacturers of hand-crafted products.

To apply, candidates must create products belonging to one of the categories indicated by Amazon (art, homeware, jewellery, accessories, leisure, sport, stationery, toys, etc.), and they must produce them entirely by hand.

The craftsmen selected will be able to create their own area within the e-store and sell their products online.

The 'Handmade' e-store is now available in the USA and will soon be launched in France, Spain, Italy, the UK and Germany.
