The Retail Delivery market in Ukraine has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, driven by changing customer preferences and local special circumstances.
Customer preferences: Customers in Ukraine are increasingly turning to online shopping, with a growing number of consumers preferring to shop from the comfort of their own homes. This trend has been particularly evident during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has accelerated the shift towards e-commerce. As a result, retailers in Ukraine have been investing heavily in their online platforms and delivery capabilities in order to meet the growing demand for online shopping.
Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the Retail Delivery market in Ukraine is the increasing popularity of same-day and next-day delivery. As consumers become more accustomed to the convenience of online shopping, they are increasingly expecting faster delivery times. In response, retailers are investing in their logistics networks to offer faster and more reliable delivery options. Another trend in the market is the growing importance of last-mile delivery, as retailers seek to differentiate themselves by offering more convenient and flexible delivery options.
Local special circumstances: Ukraine has a unique geography and infrastructure, which presents some challenges for retailers when it comes to delivery. The country has a large rural population and a relatively underdeveloped road network, which can make it difficult and expensive to deliver to some areas. In addition, many Ukrainian consumers live in multi-storey apartment blocks, which can be difficult for delivery drivers to navigate. As a result, retailers in Ukraine have had to develop innovative solutions to overcome these challenges, such as partnering with local delivery companies and using technology to optimize delivery routes.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: The growth of the Retail Delivery market in Ukraine is being driven by a combination of macroeconomic factors, including rising disposable incomes, increasing urbanization, and a growing middle class. As more Ukrainians move to cities and enjoy higher levels of income, they are becoming more interested in shopping online and are willing to pay for the convenience of home delivery. In addition, the government has been implementing a range of reforms aimed at improving the business environment and attracting foreign investment, which has helped to stimulate growth in the retail sector.
Data coverage:
The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and represent what consumers pay for these products and services. The user metrics show the number of customers who have made at least one online purchase within the past 12 months.Modeling approach / Market size:
Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies, third-party studies and reports, as well as survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, GDP per capita, and internet connection speed. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.Forecasts:
In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing. The main drivers are internet users, urban population, usage of key players, and attitudes toward online services.Additional notes:
The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. GCS data is reweighted for representativeness.
