The “Fora” neighborhood store chain has opened its first shop-in-shop pet supply section at its Kyiv location at 23 Yefremova Street, the chain’s press office reported.
It is noted that the section features an expanded selection of pet products: pet food—including premium brands—toys, and other grooming items.
“This is how we’re developing ‘Fora’: we observe how our customers’ lives are changing, test new solutions, and learn through practical experience,” the company stated on social media.
The “Fora” neighborhood store chain, which has 362 stores in Ukraine, is part of the Fozzy Group commercial and industrial group. The group also operates retail chains of various formats: “Silpo” supermarkets, “Fozzy” wholesale hypermarkets, “Thrash!” discount stores, “Bila Romashka” pharmacy supermarkets, and “E-ZOO” pet stores. The group’s total number of retail locations exceeds 825 across the country.
According to YouControl, net revenue from product sales for the first half of 2026 totaled 26,825,254,000 UAH, which is 29.4% higher than in the same period last year, while net profit was 182,896,000 UAH, up 16.6% from the first half of 2025.
The Fora supermarket chain expects that in 2021 the number of orders from the chain’s retail outlets through delivery services will double in comparison with the results of 2020.
“We believe that delivery and express delivery from retail next year will double compared to this year. According to our vision of the market, the number of purchases with small and medium check will grow especially rapidly,” Director for Digital Technologies at Fora Yevhen Trishyn said at a briefing last week.
He also said that Fora has stores in Kyiv, which provides almost full coverage.
“We have several bricks-and-mortar stores in the center of Kyiv, where the turnover through Glovo reaches 10%. This is a very good, serious indicator after six months of working through one digital service. And we expect that the number of such stores will only grow,” Trishyn said.
According to General Manager of Glovo in Ukraine Dmytro Raskovsky, the service has already outstripped other delivery services from supermarkets in terms of the number of deliveries.
“According to our estimates, if we compare the number of deliveries from supermarkets in our country and that of any other player on the market, we are now number one. Most of the large retail chains are already working with us. Of the large chains, we now only lack ATB… We have also more coverage and more partners than any other delivery service,” Raskovsky said.
Fozzy Group has opened a new supermarket Fora with an area of 1,500 square meters in the Cherry Mall trade and entertainment center (Vyshneve, Kyiv-Sviatoshynsky district of Kyiv region), expanding the network to 244 objects.
“One of the main anchor tenants, the modern Fora supermarket, has opened in the new Cherry Mall trade center. The operator is located on the ground floor of the shopping center on an area of about 1,500 square meters,” the press service of UTG, the exclusive agent for leasing retail space in Cherry Mall, said.
