What Avrora does

Avrora (Мультимаркет Аврора) is a Ukrainian private multibrand retail chain operating an omnichannel model that combines a physical store network across Ukraine with an e-commerce storefront at avrora.ua and native mobile applications for iOS and Android.

The platform is built on a standard e-commerce architecture with filtering, sorting, store-location selection, and account features (wishlist, viewed products, in-store pickup) and integrates Viber for authentication and a Telegram bot (@A_StatusWorkShops_Bot) for customer support. A separate sub-brand, Aurora Next (next.avrora.ua), operates as a digital loyalty and personalized recommendations platform.

Avrora sells directly to general consumers and families at accessible price points (e.g., wet wipes from 54 UAH, laundry capsules from 69 UAH, frying pans from 289 UAH) through a horizontal segmentation strategy. Stores operate 7:00-21:00 daily. The company is a member of the Association of Consumer Trade of Ukraine (ACC); no parent company, subsidiaries, funding rounds, acquisitions, or publicly disclosed revenue are referenced in the source materials.
