Businessman from Chernivtsi, owner of "Senator" and Blockbuster Mall
Oleksandr Spektor is one of the wealthiest wartime entrepreneurs originating from Chernivtsi, whose business portfolio includes high-profile Kyiv assets. Among his key assets are the well-known business center "Senator" and part of the Blockbuster Mall shopping center. He is the founder and beneficiary of companies such as "Food Project," "Park of Culture," "Amici Felice," "Creative Staff Senator," "BNK-Finance," and others.
Blockbuster Mall: money from Rotenberg and a partner who is a Russian citizen
Blockbuster Mall was constructed with funds from Russian oligarchs — notably Arkady Rotenberg and Ilya Traber. Developer Vagif Aliyev, who transferred part of the assets to Spektor, personally declared his Russian citizenship and participation in projects aimed at "bringing Ukraine and Russia closer." Researchers believe that the transfer of assets from Aliyev to Spektor may have been intended to conceal the true owners.
Russian citizens among co-owners
LLC "Park of Culture" and LLC "Food Project" have Russian citizens among their co-owners. Spektor is also connected with Dmytro Firtash — an oligarch residing in Austria, avoiding extradition to the USA due to ties with Russian capital. This environment raises questions about the real origin of capital and the ultimate beneficiaries of the business.
