I suspect no one of those companies are designed to be profitable ever.
They have big losses because they sell below cost to gain traction.
All cloned companies seem like bubbles.

As for the young Latin American Amazon clone, Linio, 2017 is set to be a good year – with estimated revenues of €281m, the Samwers claim that the return on sales will be an impressive 12%. This is a clear sign of the Samwers’ huge and rather unrealistic ambitions: by comparison, the company’s US original, Amazon, makes just over 1% in returns.
