Rewe and Coop Switzerland's transGourmet joint venture has continued to spread it wings in Russia, with the launch of its third Selgros cash-and-carry outlet.
The store, located in the city of Vnukovo near Moscow, offers a comprehensive range of food and non-food products across 8,000m2, and has created a total of 250 new jobs.
'We are particularly happy that the store opened in Vnukovo is already our second location in the greater Moscow area; this underlines our successful course of growth in Russia even in the times of general economic crises,' said Uwe Roessler, managing director of Selgros in Moscow.
The Fegros/Selgros Group currently operates a total of 76 outlets, with 44 in Germany, 18 in Romania, 12 in Poland and two in Russia.
