Ukrainian Overseas Warehouse” is a New Opportunity for Cross-Border E-Commerce
In the cross-border e-commerce boom, the Eastern European region of the Ukrainian e-commerce market is quietly rising, releasing huge potential, attracting the attention of many cross-border sellers. In this market full of business opportunities, “Ukraine overseas warehouse” is playing an important role.
In recent years, Ukraine’s e-commerce market has shown rapid growth. in 2023, its online sales reached 182 billion hryvnia (about $4.9 billion), a year-on-year increase of 21 percent. According to professional forecasts, the market size will further grow to $6.65 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 9.6%. As the second largest e-commerce market in Eastern Europe, Ukraine has about 22 million internet users in 2025, accounting for 52% of the total population. 1.5 million cross-border e-commerce packages were made in the first quarter of 2025 alone. Categories such as electronics, apparel, home furnishings, and cosmetics are highly favored in the Ukrainian market, which highly matches with China’s strong supply chain advantages and provides a broad space for Chinese cross-border sellers to develop.
The effects of the war have changed the Ukrainian business landscape to some extent. A large number of brick-and-mortar stores have closed or been damaged by the war and consumers have been forced to shift their shopping to online, which has led to a golden opportunity for cross-border e-commerce to fill the local supply gap. In Ukraine’s logistics sector, head logistics providers Nova Poshta, Ukrposhta and Meest have a 97.6% market share, and their extensive self-managed distribution points cover the whole country, guaranteeing the timeliness of logistics. The popularity of international e-commerce platform AliExpress in Ukraine and the presence of local companies on platforms such as Amazon and eBay have also lowered the barriers for Chinese sellers to enter the Ukrainian market. Despite the short-term impact of geopolitical conflicts on the China-Ukraine cross-border e-commerce market, the growth logic of the Ukrainian e-commerce market has not changed in the long run. Its market is in a period of high-speed recovery, with clear consumer demand, mature infrastructure and high dependence on Chinese goods, which is still a potential choice for cross-border sellers to layout the Eastern European market.
In-depth understanding of Ukrainian consumers’ shopping preferences can provide cross-border sellers with more accurate operational direction. Ukraine’s light industry is relatively weak, and it relies heavily on imported goods. The scale of seafood amassing reaches 2 billion U.S. dollars annually, and there is a strong demand for 3C electronics, fashion and beauty and other categories. In terms of category distribution, electronics and media accounted for 28%, fashion 26%, home appliances 20%, toys and DIY 15%, beauty and personal care 10%. Among them, online sales of 3C electronic products accounted for as high as 50%, and the penetration rate of online purchase of household electronic products is also high. Ukrainian consumers are more price-sensitive, preferring to buy good-quality and inexpensive goods, and often shop for low-priced goods through platforms such as Sizzler.
