ATB reduced its assortment by about 600 items due to logistics restructuring

Ukraine's largest grocery chain ATB has reduced its assortment by about 600 product items and is restructuring its supply system after a series of Russian strikes on the company's logistics infrastructure.

This was reported by Forbes Ukraine.

The assortment reduction became one of the ways to reduce the load on the remaining logistics infrastructure. The retailer is also changing delivery routes and increasing the share of direct deliveries of products from manufacturers to stores, bypassing distribution centers where possible.

ATB's logistics problems intensified after a series of Russian attacks on the company's warehouses. In recent months alone, the chain's distribution centers in Dnipro, Kharkiv, Odesa and Kyiv regions were destroyed or damaged.

Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, ATB has lost more than 110,000 sq m of warehouse space — over half of its logistics infrastructure. One distribution center of the company remained in the occupied territory, four were completely destroyed, and several more were damaged. The total damage was previously estimated by the company at about 15 billion hryvnias.

After the destruction of the largest distribution center in Dnipro, the chain was forced to redistribute commodity flows between other warehouses and make more active use of its own vehicle fleet. ATB has more than 700 trucks.

Back in late August, the company introduced temporary restrictions on the sale of certain categories of socially important goods — no more than six units of one item per customer. At that time, ATB explained the decision as a result of both the consequences of strikes on logistics and an increase in wholesale purchases by resellers.

Despite the loss of part of its infrastructure, the chain continues to operate in more than 350 settlements of Ukraine. According to the company itself, at the beginning of 2026 ATB had over 1,300 stores, and its turnover for 2025 reached 294.2 billion hryvnias.
