Market overview

Russia is the world's 11th largest economy by GDP but operates under unprecedented international sanctions since 2022. Most Western companies have reduced or eliminated Russian operations. The B2B database represents pre-sanctions Russian business contacts — the landscape has changed substantially. Moscow remains Russia's commercial capital with a significant domestic economy serving the Russian market; St. Petersburg is the 2nd commercial centre. For companies still operating in Russia or targeting domestic Russian-serving businesses, the market is large (145 million people) but complex to navigate under current sanctions frameworks.

Primary business hubs: Moscow (Moscow City business district), St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk (tech hub), Yekaterinburg.

Outreach benchmarks & strategy

B2B outreach into Russia from Western companies is subject to significant sanctions compliance requirements as of 2025. Companies must screen all Russian contacts and transactions against OFAC, EU, and UK sanctions lists before any commercial engagement. For non-sanctioned sectors (food, medicine, humanitarian), Russian-language outreach through established local partners is the most practical approach. The Russian business community that has remained internationally oriented is accessible primarily through non-Western channels and platforms.
