Over the last couple of years, many investors have started buying and scaling FBA private label brands. In light of this, entrepreneurs are entering the Amazon marketplace with the intent of eventually selling their businesses. However, not every seller or brand is prepared for a successful sale.

When acquiring private label businesses on Amazon, one of the main things Riccardo Bruni looks for is an established brand.

That’s because a brand with great reviews has the potential to experience massive growth and become a category leader. 

In this episode of the Buy Box Experts podcast, James Thomson interviews Riccardo Bruni, the Co-founder of Heroes, about what investors in the European market are looking for when buying FBA private label brands. Riccardo explains why he and his brother decided to start investing in Amazon brands, how Amazon founders differ from traditional entrepreneurs, and what makes his company different from other players in the market.
