Some Wildberries sellers have relocated from Russia to Belarus amid attacks on the company’s logistics centres. Marketplace head Tatyana Kim said this in an interview with VGTRK.
“We offered some of them the option of relocating to Belarus. I know that some sellers moved from Russia and started operating there. We are helping everyone, of course,” she said.
It should be noted that this year Wildberries commissioned a major transport and logistics centre (TLC) located in the Great Stone Industrial Park near Minsk.
Kim also said that the company had restructured its logistics operations. It no longer has any large warehouses in operation. They will resume operations once the situation becomes more stable. According to Kim, the company has retained warehouses that were under construction and scheduled to be commissioned.
The marketplace has also started using a model in which sellers store their goods in their own warehouses or with fulfilment operators rather than in large warehouses.
In the summer and early autumn, the Ukrainian Armed Forces struck more than a dozen of the marketplace’s large warehouses. Some of them were completely destroyed by drone strikes.
