The ‘Kopeika’ retail chain announced in early March 2026 that it had acquired the Odessa-based “Gourmet” chain, which comprises nine mini-markets, according to the Ukrainian Retailers Association.
“The acquisition of ‘Gourmet’ will allow us to strengthen our position in the central and tourist-friendly areas of Odessa, expand our coverage, and offer shoppers an even more accessible and convenient format for daily shopping,” said Dmitry Bogdanov, director of the “Kopeika” chain, as quoted in the statement.
According to the press release, the total retail space of the “Gourman” chain’s stores is 1,500 square meters. “Kopiyka” has already begun the phased preparation to transition the acquired retail locations to the new brand. Upon completion of the integration, the “Kopeika” chain will have 127 stores, including seasonal locations and a store in Kherson.
According to Opendatabot, in 2025, the “Kopiyka” chain increased its net revenue by 19.5% to 4.3 billion UAH and its net profit by 31.6% to 24.2 million UAH.
