The tenant roster also includes other representatives of major international and federal Russian retailers offering a wide range of goods and services.

PPF Real Estate Russia Executive Director Tomáš Laštovka said: “We took a regional approach at the first stage of developing our commercial property projects in Russia, and this strategy has proven to be correct. Customers’ huge interest in our first SEC, the M5 Mall in Ryazan, illustrates that there is real demand for goods and services offered in accordance with the highest European standards in Russia’s regions. The Yarmarka SEC in Astrakhan has also been built to attain such standards, and its advantage is that it is situated in the very centre of the city, right next to the train and bus stations.”
