Three months after Ukraine began striking warehouses belonging to Russian online shopping giants Wildberries and Ozon, workers and sellers describe the damage to their livelihoods

Açıklama

Wildberries and Ozon play an enormous role in Russia’s economy and in the lives of millions of Russians, as well as entrepreneurs and shoppers in the Commonwealth of Independent States, where both companies also operate. For some, these online marketplaces offer relatively low prices; for others, jobs at logistics centers where pay often exceeds the regional average; and for still others, a platform to grow their own businesses. Employees and sellers have always had strained relationships with Wildberries and Ozon because of the companies’ strict rules. But the situation became more complicated in the summer of 2026, when Ukraine began regularly striking the marketplaces’ infrastructure, destroying goods stored in their warehouses.
