Wildberries' CEO held a meeting with the Prime Minister of Belarus.
In a meeting held in Minsk, Belarus, Alexander Turchin, the Prime Minister of Belarus, gathered representatives from the private sector, including Tatiana Kím, the founder of Wildberries marketplaces. The discussion centred around the development of the company RUB (United Company Wildberries and Russ), with a particular focus on plans and new projects for the Wildberries marketplace in the Belarusian market.
As of August 2025, Wildberries continues to operate actively in Belarus as one of its key markets within a broad regional footprint. While there are no specific recent announcements about new expansion plans uniquely for Belarus, Wildberries maintains a significant presence supported by a developed logistics network and IT infrastructure in the country.
Regarding the Belarusian government’s stance on e-commerce development, no explicit new policy updates were found. However, Belarus is actively strengthening trade and economic cooperation with neighbouring countries, including enhanced bilateral business forums with Uzbekistan focusing on trade diversification and entrepreneurship, which likely supports e-commerce growth indirectly. The Belarusian government appears interested in promoting balanced economic interactions and entrepreneurship, creating a favorable environment for platforms like Wildberries.
The meeting between Turchin and Kím did not reveal any new information about the company RUB (United Company Wildberries and Russ). Journalist Mikhail Svetlov covered the story, shedding light on the ongoing discussions and potential future developments for Wildberries in Belarus.
