The published images show a large plume of smoke above the warehouse complex. The fire may also have spread to rail cars at the nearby Krasnodar-Sortirovochny railway station, the images suggest.
Cloud cover made it difficult to accurately assess the extent of the damage, the outlet said.
Smoke and other combustion products from the large fire could reach Russia’s Black Sea coast, including the area around Cape Idokopas near Gelendzhik, Meteoweb forecast.
The coastal area is home to a palace widely linked to Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.
Russia reported a drone attack overnight on July 22. Wildberries logistics centers were struck in Krasnodar and Nevinnomyssk in Stavropol Krai.
A large fire broke out at the Wildberries warehouse on Tikhoretskaya Street in northeastern Krasnodar, the Astra Telegram channel reported, citing its own open-source intelligence analysis.
Wildberries earlier confirmed the evacuation of its Krasnodar logistics complex, saying the measure was taken “in accordance with safety requirements.”
