Wildberries is gradually connecting sellers to the new model; the company is not yet ready to announce the full launch of the service.
The Darkstore at Home website reports that renting a shelf costs sellers 3 thousand rubles a month. Rental includes 30 orders with delivery. Each additional order costs another 70 rubles.
At the same time, Wildberries does not have a “business relationship” with the startup: “Darkstore at Home” acts only as a warehouse operator for the sellers themselves, writes Vedomosti.
- “Darkstore at Home” is a network of urban warehouses for online retailers with the ability to deliver orders to the end customer within 30 to 60 minutes. The company was founded in 2021 by Kirill Chekanov and Grigory Tareev.
- In October 2023, the venture capital company 2FISH Capitals and a group of private investors IZBA VC invested 34 million rubles in the express delivery service Darkstore at Home.
