Ready-to-eat food is an absolute growth leader!

Tthe latest data from X5 and NTech reinforces this trend.

📊 Impressive figures:
✅ Ready-to-eat meal sales have grown by 55.6% over the past three years
✅ One in every 20 receipts at Pyaterochka and Perekrestok now includes a ready-to-eat meal
✅ The main buyers aren’t students at all, but people aged 30–55 (56% of sales), 60% of whom are women

What else is trending:
▶️ Ready-made pizza—demand has increased fivefold; sandwiches—up 117%
▶️ Baked goods—up 29.1%

The key driver is consumer trust. X5 has launched a six-step quality control system, and it’s working.

We’d like to remind you of our interview with Elena Krupskaya, X5’s Director of Food Safety, where we discussed food safety and consumer trust in detail.
