During this time, more than 6,000 items were sold. The average number of items purchased per person exceeded three, confirming strong consumer interest.

Future of the Department Store and geographical expansion

The "Department Store" project, launched in November 2024 as part of the legacy of the RUSSSIA EXPO, continues its active development. This year, branches of the National Centre RUSSIA will open in five Russian regions, each featuring its own Department Store. This will expand the project's geography and present domestic manufacturers’ products to the wider domestic market, while also strengthening the Department Store’s position internationally.
