Abstract
This chapter deals with economic activities of FSU migrants that can be broadly classified as enclave economy businesses. Businesses assigned to this market category have predominantly co-ethnic clientele (Kloosterman 2010). The chapter starts with the definition of enclave economy developed in the early migrant entrepreneurship research (e.g. Wilson & Portes 1980, Zhou 1992), as the Russian-speaking migrant market shares some important characteristics with this concept.
