As of June 2017, Walmart has a total of 27 million products while Amazon has a product count of 372 million products up for sale.
That’s only 7.49% of the products Amazon has to offer.
Amazon and Walmart finding Rival Bidders
Amazons purchase of Whole Foods will make the two almost directly competitive in the grocery business for the first time. Amazon has been trying to dominate the grocery business, even though Walmart has the biggest share in the market, holding 14.5% of U.S food and grocery sales.
Walmart is equally competitive as well, with the purchases of e-Commerce companies ModCloth and Bonobos.
Significant Changes Over the Past Month
Walmart has increased their number of products by 1.7 million over the previous month. Amazon, on the other hand, has a rise in products by 4.2 million, which is quite lower than usual regarding its broad product portfolio.
Top 10 Categories
The “Home” department is at the top with a total of 4.9 million products, a 2.65 million rise compared to the previous month. It’s the highest increase in home products so far, followed by Jewelry and Electronics.
