The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is lending €25 million to Rozetka Group, Ukraine's largest online retailer, to support its business continuity and strengthen its resilience following the destruction of its main warehouse and distribution centre in the Kyiv region.
The loan is split into a €10 million committed tranche for resilience-related investments and working capital needs in Ukraine and Poland, and a further €15 million uncommitted tranche for working capital and investment as the business recovers.
The Bank’s loan for Rozetka’s Ukrainian operations benefits from a first-loss guarantee provided by the European Union under its Ukraine Investment Framework.
The EBRD financing will help Rozetka to restore its working capital and protect jobs after missile and drone attacks destroyed its logistics complex in Brovary in August 2026. It will help the retailer to maintain the availability of goods and continue serving customers as it recovers from the severe disruption and reorganises its logistics network to reduce reliance on large, centralised facilities.
The financing will also support investments that strengthen Rozetka’s business resilience and improve staff welfare. These include battery-storage systems for pick-up points, mobile shelters, modern fire-safety systems at the company's sites, and accessible warehouse work areas and transport for employees relocated to alternative operating sites. Rozetka is Ukraine's leading retailer, founded in Kyiv in 2005. It operates about 500 stores and an e-commerce platform, combining direct online retail with a marketplace model supported by proprietary logistics and financial services. Since 2023 Rozetka has been operating in Poland through its subsidiary Rozetka EU, running the online shopping platform rozetka.pl.
The EBRD is Ukraine’s largest institutional investor. The Bank has significantly stepped up its investment in the country since Russia’s full-scale invasion, deploying €11 billion there since 2022, including a record €2.9 billion in 2025. The EBRD remains a committed and steadfast partner to Ukraine.
