Our Concept and Differentiation

The Company operates a completely standardised store portfolio that is well positioned to drive outstanding unit economics. We have built a one-store format by leveraging a consistent and uniform concept across the entire Fix Price store network. This format encompasses average store size, product assortment, pricing policies, product layout, equipment and marketing, and promotional activities. Such approach allows us to ensure our business remains consistent and scalable, all while driving efficiency gains and building brand recognition with customers. Our typical store has an average selling space of c. 215 square metres and is mainly located in convenient and high-traffic sites in high-density areas, as well as in shopping malls and shopping centres, across a variety of urban areas. In addition, we have been successful in operating stores in smaller localities and plan to continue to expand in those settings.

The key pillars that make Fix Price stand out from the competition are our market-leading position based on our unique customer proposition; our stores’ format, which holds significant future growth potential; our consistently strong performance against financial and operational KPIs; and our cutting-edge IT solutions. We also strive to provide an exciting treasure hunt experience for our customers. When delivering our customer proposition, we aim to surprise consumers with new and exciting goods at affordable prices. We believe that we help make our customers’ everyday lives better by offering an enjoyable shopping experience at all Fix Price stores.

A Format that Supports Significant Future Growth Potential

Over the past few years, we have been scaling our business in a turbulent and rapidly changing environment, responding prudently to external challenges to meet our growth and profitability commitments. Moreover, we have been able to capitalise on the ongoing sea change in Russian consumers’ behaviour towards favouring greater value offerings.

We believe there is further potential to expand our operations in Russia as well as in its neighbouring countries. The total store potential for the Russian variety value retail market is estimated at approximately 15,600 stores (including Fix Price stores already operating), which is nearly 3x higher than the Group’s current store count in Russia.Source: INFOLine Looking outside of Russia, we expect the total store potential to be approximately 3,000 combined for the respective VVR markets in Belarus and Kazakhstan (including Fix Price stores already operating).Source: INFOLine
