Turkish sellers double revenue

Last year’s forum brought together over 500 Turkish entrepreneurs, helping many enter the Russian market and boost their sales.

Since opening its Istanbul office in August 2022, Ozon Global has actively collaborated with Turkish businesses.

By the second quarter of this year, Turkish sellers on the platform doubled their revenue compared to the previous year, with Ozon Global buyers placing 2.2 times more orders from Türkiye.
