About 900 thousand rubles – this is the average annual revenue of pick-up point (PVP) owners in Russia, according to a study by the Center for Evidence-Based Expertise at the Gaidar Institute. The results of the survey are available to "Vedomosti".

It turned out that the annual revenue of almost half (42%) of pick-up point owners last year was less than 500 thousand rubles.

The surveys also showed that on average, owners manage about two pick-up points. 43% of respondents have two to three points, 20% have four or more, and 38% have one.

Another quarter of pick-up point owners earned between 500 thousand and 1 million rubles last year. 19% of respondents managed to earn between 1 million and 2 million rubles. 14% earned 2 million rubles or more.

However, the revenue of sellers on marketplaces turned out to be much higher. The average revenue of individual entrepreneurs and legal entities from sales only through marketplaces reached 37.5 million rubles per year last year, which is 37% of their total turnover. Due to certain restrictions, self-employed individuals on marketplaces earn an average of about 880 thousand rubles.
