That's right, you'll soon be able to get your hands on some slick smartphones, sweet consumer electronics, and more from the UAE, all on one platform!
According to the buzz, this action-packed expansion will kick off in May, making the United Arab Emirates the tenth country in Wildberries' international network. Exciting stuff, huh?
The company is assuring customers that ordering from the UAE will be a breeze. You can easily pick up your orders at any pickup point, and delivery times will range from a smooth 6 days, depending on the availability of goods and customs clearance speed.
