Russian retail under sanctions pressure: problems and opportunities

Sanctions as a tool of pressure have been used against our country more than once. But against the background of the events that began in 2022, analysis of their impact on the economy and the possibility of overcoming it has become an urgent need. Among the areas that felt the significant impact of sanctions was trade. At the same time, Russian retail trade in the 21st century developed under the influence of not only the 2022 sanctions, but also the 2014 sanctions, crises, and digital transformation of the economy. Under the influence of these processes, domestic retail trade is undergoing quantitative and qualitative changes. In this work, based on statistical data, research results from analytical centers, expert forecasts, an analysis of trends and problems in the development of Russian retail is carried out, and a forecast is made for the near future.
