Nearly 70% of international packages shipped to Russian consumers in 2014 came from China, as compared to 40% in 2013.

However, Chinese companies took 50% of total revenues in the cross-border sector in 2014, a business representing EUR 4 billion in 2014. EU companies still sell well in the Russian market as the total revenues reached EUR 4 billion in 2014, a notable increase from EUR 2.4 billion in 2013.

RUB has fallen nearly 40% against the EUR in 2014, according to The Moscow Times news agency, cited by e-commercefacts.com.
