ST. PETERSBURG, June 3. /TASS/. Russia’s e-commerce turnover may reach around 15.8 trillion rubles ($215.99 bln) by the end of 2026, increasing by 20% compared with 2025, President of the Association of Internet Trade Companies Artyom Sokolov told TASS on the sidelines of SPIEF.
"Such dynamics – around 20% – will most likely remain in place through the end of the year, with the expected total reaching around 15.8 trillion rubles," he said.
Sokolov noted that in the first four months of 2026, e-commerce turnover increased by 17.5% year-on-year to 4.646 trillion rubles ($63.51 bln).
According to Sokolov, e-commerce remains one of the most dynamically developing sectors of the economy. However, the period of explosive growth has now given way to a stage of stable organic development.
