The Market storefront in Yandex Go, which offered products with longer delivery times, will cease operations on November 10, the press service of Yandex Uzbekistan told Gazeta.uz. The company will focus on express delivery via Stores and Lavka.

Orders can be placed on Market until November 10, and everything users manage to order before that date will be processed and delivered. Groceries, electronics, cosmetics, household goods and other categories can still be ordered in Yandex Go with delivery times starting from 15 minutes. The company invited Market partners interested in fast delivery to consider cooperating with Stores or Lavka.

According to Yandex Uzbekistan, over the past year, the number of Stores partners has almost doubled to reach 500, Lavka operates ten dark stores, and its private label includes more than 100 items. According to the company, orders in Stores and Lavka in 2026 are already three times higher than in 2025.

In addition, Yandex Uzbekistan plans to launch robot delivery in Tashkent by the end of 2026, which is currently undergoing testing. "We hope to launch delivery before the end of the year," Izzat Shukurov told Kun.uz. The robots are designed for distances of up to two kilometers, move at pedestrian speed, navigate using lidar and ultrasonic sensors, and are capable of traveling in the rain and surmounting curbs up to 10 centimeters high. They will carry groceries, prepared food, and everyday goods. Following the pilot, the company plans to connect the robots to other ecosystem services and offer robot delivery to third-party companies.

What it means

Orders on the Market storefront will be accepted until November 10; those placed before that date will be delivered. Express delivery of goods in Yandex Go with delivery times from 15 minutes will continue to operate.
