Distribution

Building a network of our own cold storage sites was key to the creation of an infrastructure the enables us to QC/QA the conditions and ambients in which our products are stored and delivered. With the help of our partners and our own distribution system, our products are delivered throughout Russia , Ukraine , Byelorussia , Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan . With a vehicle fleet of our own, we can sell by retail in Moscow and its suburbs. In many cities and towns we have representative offices, and their numbers are growing annually. 

At present, the Company has the following three distribution centers at its disposal:

• in the town of Kaliningrad : storage capacity of 1200 tons of finished products;

   

• in the Cossack village of Bryukhovetskaya , Krasnodar Kray: storage capacity of 1000 tons of finished products;

   

• in the settlement of Staraya Kupavna, Moscow Region: storage capacity of 5000 tons of finished products.

   

In 2005 we expect to commission a cold storage site in Novosibirsk (5000 ton storage capacity). We are currently designing another cold storage in Yekaterinburg.

The food staples and components used in the production are kept in the specially designed 3400-t cold storages in Kaliningrad and in ordinary bulk storages, amounting to 5180 sq. m in area.

The well-developed and powerfully built infrastructure allows for production and storage of an ample supply of goods and protects us from any Clients shortages.
