MEREZHA LTD

What MEREZHA LTD does

Merezha Ltd is a privately held telecommunications infrastructure company that has operated since 2001 under its Ukrainian parent entity (ТОВ «Мережа», EDRPOU 31569496) and, since 2022, under a UK-incorporated subsidiary (Merezha LLC, Company No. 14708277) established to ensure business continuity amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The company provides three integrated services to telecom operators, ISPs, and end-user subscribers: (i) IPv4 and IPv6 network resource brokerage, encompassing buying, selling, and renting address blocks with full transaction support including document preparation, notarization, and escrow coordination; (ii) LIR support services for maintaining provider-independent (PI) networks, priced at 200 EUR annually; and (iii) colocation services in data centers across Ukraine and Europe (Poland, Germany, Spain, Bulgaria, Italy, Greece), with 1U hosting at 120 EUR per month and redundant high-speed connectivity to Ukrainian internet exchange points.

The company operates as a Local Internet Registry (LIR) partnered with RIPE NCC, giving it regulatory standing to allocate and manage PI IPv4/IPv6 resources in the European region. A strategic ISP partnership with NetAssist (НетАссіст) extends its colocation reach into global internet hubs while preserving dedicated redundant channels back to Ukraine. The underlying technology is essentially a broker and operations layer rather than a proprietary software platform; there is no API, SDK, or AI/ML component disclosed.

Merezha's revenue model combines recurring subscription income (LIR support and colocation fees) with transactional brokerage commissions. Go-to-market is sales-led and consultative, with customer acquisition conducted via direct email inquiry ([email protected]) and the company website (merezha.net). No digital marketing, paid acquisition, or content distribution channels are described, and there are no disclosed customers, named logos, headcount figures, funding rounds, or revenue figures. Ownership is independent with no disclosed parent company, investors, or external capital backing.

Regional players

• NetAssist: NetAssist is a Ukrainian ISP and strategic partner of Merezha that enables global hub colocation and Ukraine connectivity. While a partner today, it also provides IP-related and hosting services regionally in Ukraine/CIS that partially overlap with Merezha's customer base.

Direct peers

• Addrex: Addrex operates an IPv4 address marketplace and broker service, enabling organizations to buy, sell, and lease IPv4 blocks with escrow support. Overlaps directly with Merezha's IPv4 brokerage offering on both transactional and recurring lease revenue.
• IPv4.Global: Operated by Hilco Streambank, IPv4.Global is the largest dedicated IPv4 broker marketplace, facilitating transfers of IPv4 address blocks globally. It directly competes with Merezha's IP brokerage service on the same buyers, sellers, and RIPE/APNIC/ARIN transfer process, with similar full-service transaction support.
• IPv4 Market Group: IPv4 Market Group provides an IPv4 marketplace and transfer services, connecting buyers and sellers of address space. It competes head-to-head with Merezha on broker commissions and recurring LIR-adjacent support for new address holders.
• Prefixx: Prefixx is a dedicated IPv4 address broker providing matching and transfer services between buyers and sellers of IPv4 blocks. It is a direct competitor to Merezha on broker commissions and transaction support for mid-market IPv4 transfers.
• Brander Group / Hilco Streambank IPv4 Practice: Brander Group pioneered the IPv4 brokerage market and has been folded into Hilco Streambank's IP address practice. It offers brokerage, valuation, and transaction support for IPv4 buyers and sellers, closely matching Merezha's full-service broker model.
• IP Trading: IP Trading facilitates the purchase, sale, and lease of IPv4 address blocks with consultancy and end-to-end transfer support. It targets operators and ISPs in similar fashion to Merezha, competing on the same RIPE-managed PI address transfers.

Broad incumbents
