Lukashevich "In a fairly short time, we've managed to achieve good results in e-commerce. Back in December 2020, the
daily number of orders was at 7,000, and by September of this year we had already increased this figure
Director of more than sixfold. We see the main growth in those regions, where the competition is not as high as in
E-Commerce at Moscow and St. Petersburg. As a result of that, we've managed to take the lead in many regions quite
Magnit quickly. Today we're actively scaling our cost-efficient partnerships with the leading players in the
foodtech market, while paying a lot of attention to the development of our own delivery service as well."
