June 20, 2022 - Jellyfish: Yandex Market and Ozon engaged in parallel imports
As Kommersant found out, Yandex is setting up a separate division to import products into Russia as part of parallel imports (it allows us to import goods whose sales have started in other countries without the permission of the copyright holder). The company's marketplaces have already received the first consignments of foreign brands of electronics and home appliances from Russia: dishwashers, ovens, hobs and video cards. It is not specified which brands.
Ozon also announced plans to supply parallel imports on its own, not ruling out that in the future luxury goods may appear on the site, which could not be sold in the past: “Due to the strict rules of luxury brands, many collections in Russia are not sold, other products were not presented on major online platforms. However, the parallel legalization procedure of parallel imports avoids such restrictions on the part of brands and, above all, the forces of sellers to expand this range.
$ 100-120 billion is the projected annual volume of parallel imports to Russia, according to the Center for Strategic Development. ”
