Russian apparel market

The size of the Russian apparel market fell to 22 billion U.S. dollars in 2022, having experienced an exodus of international brands in response to the invasion of Ukraine. In previous years, the development of e-commerce in the country led to a prominent growth of online trade in this segment. With Wildberries as an irreplaceable leader, the Russian e-commerce market is evolving at a fast pace.
