How is the retail market in Ukraine doing in the third year of the war?

Comfy, one of Ukraine’s largest retailers of household appliances and electronics, continues to scale its business. The retailer opened its first store in Berdychiv (Zhytomyr Region) with a total area of ​​725 square meters. Currently, the Comfy chain comprises 103 stores. At the beginning of 2024, the company opened its updated flagship store in the Ocean Plaza shopping center and resumed operations at the store in the Appolo shopping center in Dnipro, which was destroyed because of a direct missile strike by Russia in December of 2023.

The Torba network management team has decided to sell most of its minimarket chain, Simeyna Lavka, to the Vinnytsia company, Alliance Osnova, which has 138 facilities in total. According to the terms of the agreement, all Simeyna Lavka store assets are now the property of the Vinnytsia retailer.
