Proudly Canadian — Your Amazon Business Partner for Global Markets
The Beacon Commerce Shine on Amazon Contest is back for 2026, marking our third year helping up-and-coming brands launch, grow and succeed on Amazon.
"The Shine on Amazon Contest is our way of helping promising brands get set for success on Amazon," said Don Thompson, Beacon Commerce founder and CEO.
"Amazon is the world's largest online marketplace, and it plays a key role in today's buying journey for consumer packaged goods (CPG) brands. Amazon influences customer discovery, trust and purchase decisions across every channel. That's why getting the right advice and support at the outset is so important for any brand."
The Shine on Amazon Contest first launched in 2024, with bone broth drink company Beck's Broth winning the inaugural grand prize. Visit Beck's Broth's Amazon stores in Canada & USA.
The 2025 contest grand prize went to Protein Candy, a company that makes easy (and fun!) for candy lovers to hit their protein goals. See Protein Candy's Amazon stores: Canada & USA.
