Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has had devastating effects on Ukraine, with millions of refugees fleeing the country as well as social and economic chaos. Retail Brands (private brand) are a global phenomenon that has brought us Vertex Award-winning designs from Ukrainian retailer EVA.

Eva.ua is a leading perfume and cosmetics chain in Ukraine. The retailer sells cosmetics, perfumes, and home care products. They operate 990+ stores, carry 40,000+ items, and employ more than 15,000 employees.

Earlier this week I received a request from EVA for humanitarian assistance or more specifically for the contact information for retailers and manufacturers who may be able to help. I quickly volunteered to put a call out to Velocity Institute members and readers.
