Dear readers! We present to your attention the final issue of the LOGISTICS journal in 2024. We have tried to make it rich and interesting. Today, many Russian companies operate under strict sanctions restrictions, which force them to reorient logistics flows. One of the possible solutions to this problem may be the Russia – Mongolia – China economic corridor. Details can be found in the article by Alexandra Kazunina.
Moscow, June 22, 2016 — FMCG producers in Russia, such as Nestle, Johnson & Johnson, Procter & Gamble, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola prefer to lease rather than to purchase office premises, according to CBRE Research’s latest Trends in FMCG sector in Russia survey. 89% of the total office space is leased. In the last 5 years FMCG companies leased predominantly Class A offices, 68% of take-up.
The study that was held for the first time in 2015, CBRE analyzed the office space occupied by 62 largest FMCG companies (total office area around 240,000 sq m).
Historically when choosing location for their offices FMCG producers preferred Class A premises located in the CBD. As a result 50% of the total office take-up of this segment is located within TTR. Though, following the general cost optimization trend of the last three years, FMCG producers prefer to lease office space beyond TTR (68% of take-up in 2013-2015).
14 FMCG companies moved to new offices in 2015 occupying 22,000 sq m. 22 companies renegotiated their current lease terms (63,000 sq m), which was the record high figure.
Irina Khoroshilova, Director of Global Corporate Services Department CBRE in Russia said:
“On the back of import substitution programme implementation, we can expect activation of Russian food producers as well as international companies with local production which will continue to increase market share to cover falling import of food. The food imports share in retail stock has dropped down to 28% in 2015 from 34% in 2014 and continue to decline, to 24% in Q1 2016. So we can expect the growth of office space demand from the FMCG companies mentioned above. In addition decentralization trend will continue and FMCG companies will look for office space between TTR and MKAD.”
