"In the last three months, we've managed to double the number of online orders, and in December, we've successfully surpassed 100 thousand purchases. Since the last year, the number of orders we process has increased 14 times, and today, we already are one of the market leaders, despite the fact that we delivered our first-ever online order just 15 months ago, in August 2020. We're delighted to see that our services are in demand by consumers, especially in the regions, where users are gradually expanding their customer experiences and exploring new shopping formats. We continue to actively develop our e-commerce capabilities and will offer new services and interesting options to our customers later this year."
