RETAIL CENTER

Global Fishery Forum & Seafood Expo Russia
September, 27-29, 2023, Saint Petersburg

THE ONLY RETAIL CENTER IN RUSSIA DEDICATED TO FISH AND SEAFOOD

Retail Center is a business platform for negotiations and signing contracts between representatives of fishery industry and biggest retail chains. The format is very helpful for both sides in terms of saving time because the meeting schedule has been set beforehand and both sides of negotiations are decision makers. For 4 years the project has been attended by more than 50 federal and regional retail chains and online stores. Every year around 60 suppliers held more than 700 negotiations which result in 90 supply contracts in average.

This year the negotiation zone will contain the product showcase. The project named “Fish counter” will help producers and suppliers to show the products to full advantage and retailers to make decision of its purchase and discuss all the details about sales and merchandizing.

The participation in project is available not only for exhibitors but also every retailer or fish/seafood supplier interested.

Elena Abrosimova, Commercial director

We really appreciate the opportunity for attending the Retail Center Project at the exhibition and for negotiating with many suppliers offering a wide range of products. We came from a place far away from Moscow, which was quite challenging. However, we have found a partner who sees no barrier in long distances. Our new supplier is Fish Factory Mamadyshskiy – an exhibitor. We hope our shops will see their goods in the nearest future.
We are satisfied with the organization of the event and the results we have achieved. And we are planning to attend the exhibition next year.
