Resume

The article considers the current state of the domestic market, which is being formed today under the significant influence of globalization processes, the consequences of which were particularly contradictory during the global financial and economic crisis. The article presents an analysis of the current state of domestic trade in Ukraine, which will allow a better understanding of the existing problems and will outline promising ways of the industry development for its stabilization and improvement of efficiency. The dynamics of the turnover of domestic trade in Ukraine, which was marked by notable fluctuations due to both global challenges and military conflicts, are analysed. The problems of domestic trade in Ukraine are identified, which have a complex nature and arise due to various economic, political, social and infrastructural factors. The main losses of the domestic market of Ukraine are considered, which are largely related to the reduction of consumer activity, the destruction of industrial and commercial facilities, and the general decline in economic activity due to the war. The article substantiates the promising directions of domestic trade in Ukraine, which depend on many factors, such as economic conditions, legislative changes, investments in infrastructure, technologies and changes in consumer behaviour.
