Kesko opened the sixth K-ruoka store in St. Petersburg
Kesko today opened a new K-ruoka store in St. Petersburg. The store is located
in a property owned by Kesko at Shuvalovsky Prospekt 45.
The K-ruoka store is the chain's sixth store. It is located in the fast growing
northern part of the city, in the former K-rauta building, which became vacant
when K-rauta moved to larger premises at Parashutanya Ulitsa 60.
According to Kari Heiskanen, Kesko Food's Country Director for Russia, the K-
ruoka stores in St. Petersburg have been excellently received.
- Customers have appreciated the concept that focuses on freshness, high quality
and Finnish products. Based on the good experiences, Kesko will continue to make
capital expenditures in Russia and carefully consider every new capital
expenditure. The next two K-ruoka stores that are being built will open in May
and June.
