The park of auto-shops of the republic replenished with new cars
Today, the Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Tatarstan - Minister of Agriculture and Food of Tatarstan Marat Zyabbarov handed the keys to new grocery stores to the heads of district consumer cooperatives.
Cars were allocated under the republican program “30/70” thanks to the President of the Republic of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov for organizing outbound trade in remote and inaccessible settlements of the republic, as well as in villages without shops.
Equipped with all the necessary commercial and refrigeration equipment, car shops went to Alkeevsky, Aksubaevsky, Drozhzhanovsky, Sarmanovsky, and Rybno-Slobodsky districts, including for the first store without a seller that opened in Tatarstan this year as part of the Digital Village project.
Another car went to service the Tatar courtyard, which opened in 2019 in St. Petersburg. Thanks to this project, now there is an opportunity to buy the tastiest and freshest products of local producers outside Tatarstan.
The number of auto shops operating in Tatarstan serving remote settlements is increasing every year. Today, all 106 autoshops operate in the system and supply 1315 settlements with necessary goods. This year, in conditions of self-isolation, their role has especially increased.
At the end of the meeting, Marat Zyabbarov and the chairman of the board of Tatpotrebsoyuz Rashat Shaimardanov, heads of district consumer cooperatives and societies, discussed perspective work plans of cooperatives, as well as the implementation of the projects “Shop without a seller” and “Tatar courtyard”.
The Head of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan expressed confidence that the auto shops will continue the development of the mobile format of trade in the republic and will greatly benefit the rural population.
