Amazon CEO Andy Jassy published his first annual shareholder letter on Thursday.
Over the past 25 years at Amazon, I've had the opportunity to write many narratives, emails, letters, and keynotes for employees, customers, and partners. But, this is the first time I've had the honor of writing our annual shareholder letter as CEO of Amazon. Jeff set the bar high on these letters, and I will try to keep them worth reading.
Conversely, our Consumer revenue grew dramatically in 2020. In 2020, Amazon's North America and International Consumer revenue grew 39% YoY on the very large 2019 revenue base of $245 billion; and, this extraordinary growth extended into 2021 with revenue increasing 43% YoY in Q1 2021. These are astounding numbers. We realized the equivalent of three years' forecasted growth in about 15 months.
So, 2021 was a crazy and unpredictable year, continuing a trend from 2020. But, I'm proud of the incredible commitment and effort from our employees all over the world. I'm not sure any of us would have gotten through the pandemic the same way without the dedication and extraordinary efforts shown by our teams during this period, and I'm eternally grateful.
