About 300 delegates from 50 federal and regional retail chains are attending the Fresh Food Russia Forum being held November 13-14 at Moscow’s Kosrton Hotel.
Dedicated to fresh grocery and in-store produce, the event also includes opportunities to join a special negotiations session with commercial directors, purchasing directors and buyers from retail chains from Kaliningrad to Khabarovsk.
According to the Fresh Food Russia Forum organisers, the recent US and EU food import ban by Russia means the country’s retail chains are in search of new suppliers. “They are looking for reliable international partners.”
“Russia was the leading retail market by turnover in Europe in 2013. Two thirds of Russian customers are willing to pay more for fresh grocery, according to recent surveys by consulting firms,” they said.
