Putin has taken control of discounts on marketplaces
Russian President Vladimir Putin, at a meeting with Minister of Economic Development Maxim Reshetnikov, personally clarified how the refusal of marketplaces from compulsory discounts at the expense of sellers is progressing. Reshetnikov replied: Ozon and Wildberries have already agreed, and the agreement will soon be consolidated into law. For tens of thousands of sellers, this is a direct signal that a practice that has been eating up margins for years is living out its last months.
