ILC's Chief Operating Officer, Alexander Yurishchev, commented on the situation for Retail.ru
"However, experts single out the main reason for what is happening unanimously: This is an abnormally warm winter, which has caused many importers of the fashion industry to experience record low sales of winter collections. As a result, a significant number of unsold winter clothing items remained in retailers' warehouses."
"Now we are noticing a slight positive trend and an increase in demand for transportation in various sectors, but still the volume of transportation has not reached the level
preceding the Chinese New Year," said Alexander Yurishchev.
