Based in in Moscow, SPAR Russia opened its first store in August 2001 through a licence by SPAR International to a regional partner. The supermarket chain currently operates more than 530 locations across the country.

Spar Russia signed a licensing agreement with a new Spar Partner, in February this year, which will see the retailer expand into the southern federal district of Astrakhan.

The first Astrakhan-based Spar supermarket was launched at the end of last year and the company is planning to open 30 new stores in the region by the end of next year.

The increase was driven by factors, such as customised offerings, effective use of the EUROSPAR and INTERSPAR formats and local expertise to meet customers’ needs and expectations.

The company also noted that new SPAR Partner licence agreements signed at the end of last year that will contribute to store expansion and sales growth in Russia.
