Wildberries Allocates 40 Million Roubles Following Warehouse Strikes

The first of these strikes occurred on July 18, resulting in the deaths of eight employees and sparking a significant disruption to the retailer's supply chain. Management moved to address the immediate aftermath, ensuring that financial aid reached the affected families by July 21.

While the company continues to navigate the operational fallout of losing a tenth of its logistics capacity, this payout serves as the primary mechanism for supporting those impacted by the hostilities. The commitment follows a series of security challenges that have forced the firm to re-evaluate the safety of its regional facilities.
