The rouble's depreciation has led to a drastic growth of prices for imported goods in Russian retail chains. Prices of imports of alcohol grew by 30-45%, fruits by 7-15%, coffee – 10-12%, sugar – 30-40%, according to Vladimir Rusanov, the head of the Public Relations Department of X5 Retail Group.
He says that in the very near future prices for some goods will be reconsidered.
