At the same time, it is noted that the average check in online commerce in March increased and amounted to 923 rubles compared to 864 rubles in February. According to the information provided by Artem Sokolov, President of the Association of Internet Commerce Companies (AKIT), the growth of the Russian Internet commerce market last year amounted to 33%. The interest of Russians in the use of Internet commerce is growing against the backdrop of a decrease in traffic and turnover of traditional trade and in the face of a decrease in the level of income of Russians.
