According to a November 2012 report in Forbes Ukraine, Donetsk City is the fifth most-visited shopping center in Ukraine, with an average of 30,000 visitors per day.[3]

The mall is the flagship project of the "Investment and Development" group headed by Igor Gumenuk, Vasily Mikulin, and Irina Friedman. As of January 2013, a fair amount of the office space portion of the project was not yet rented.[4]

Following the outbreak of the war in Donbas in 2014, Donetsk City briefly closed, before reopening a few years later. While most of the shops present at the mall did not return, a few remained functional.[5]
