VK and Sber may divide the assets of their joint venture O2O Holding for onward sale. VK may get Delivery Club, and Sber may get Samokat and Citydrive.

According to the source of Forbes, the assets of the joint venture do not fit into the development strategy of VK, which focuses on social networks, video and instant messengers. According to another source, when the assets are divided, Sberbank will get Samokat, which is “deeply integrated with SberMarket”.

According to one of the interviewed experts, it is possible that Sber will try selling Samokat and Citydrive to Yandex, because “this will be a logical place for these businesses”.


Earlier it was announced that VK and Sber were considering the sale of Delivery Club. Yandex may buy the service, but the companies leave open the option of exchanging Delivery Club for Yandex.News and Yandex.Zen.
