08:58; 11 September 2025 year

According to Infoline research, the turnover of the ten largest Russian retailers in the first half of 2025 amounted to 6.8 trillion rubles, showing an increase of 14.1% year on year, Vedomosti writes. A year earlier, the dynamics was 22.2%. The share of these companies in the total turnover increased by only 0.1 percentage points, reaching 30.9%.

The slowdown in growth is due to a drop in consumer demand. According to Rosstat, retail sales in January and July increased by only 2.1% compared to 9.5% a year earlier.

The dynamics were negatively affected by a drop in sales of machinery and electronics, a strengthening of the ruble, a decrease in the number of transactions in the new building market, and a high key interest rate limiting credit demand.

At the same time, marketplaces are showing higher performance, increasing turnover by 25.1% to 4.25 trillion rubles.
