Russian TYPICAL (24/7) Supermarket: Yandex Lavka

[@TravellingwithRussell]

This the first offline store from Yandex in Russia. The Russian equivalent of Google and Amazon all combine in one place. My main question, I asked in the video was " Do you have a 24/7 store like this where you live" ? How do this compare to a local shop in your neighbourhood. Let me know in the comments. I post daily updates on my travels in Russia over on Telegram, if you want to join me there: t.me/travellingwithrussell I have also recently set up a channel on VK, where I am going to be posting more in the future: vk.com/travellingwithrussell Ways, you can support me and the channel 💳 (Russian Bank Deposit) Sberbank: [phone] 💳 (Set up for Everyone) www.donationalerts.com/r/travelwithrusell 💳 (Set up for Everyone) boosty.to/travellingwithrussell/donate 🛒 Shop for items on Amazon: www.amazon.com/shop/likecruiseships 💵 PayPal (Non-Russian) www.paypal.com/paypalme/ilikecruiseships

Convenience markets are everywhere here. The run of the mill market will not look like this Yandex. They aren't immaculate or stocked as well. Standard fare in the standard markets, some world brands are just ubiquitous. But we do have a lot of specialty markets, Korean, Japanese, Mexican, etc, even a few Russian markets. That's where you can pick up special items.

[@NotSayinPlymouthguy]

I enjoy your videos but you seem to misunderstand the impact when a brand "left" Russia. They closed down their local Russian factories and the Russians workers lost their jobs. There are no sanctions on foods of any kind so in wealthy areas like Moscow and Saint Petersburg stores can import those same brands. The difference is the prices are likely higher to cover the importation costs and every ruble spent on a food product made outside of Russia is a ruble taken out of the Russian economy. Instead of Russians being employed to make the food now it is foreigners, that hurts the Russian economy over time. It would be better for Russia to ban the import of all of those brands and force wealthy Russians to buy products made by Russians.

Sister in law works in a management position in Nestle in Moscow, business as usual rest assured. I can also tell you that Germany is supplying many parts of the world as a route to Russian exports, there is a Russian shop in my neighbourhood here in Melbpurne, Australia and I asked the owner where the food is routed through these days and he said Germany, so Russian meats, frozen etc all coming via Germany. Fascinating. Big big Russian community here, i can be in the park and meet Russian, Urkaine, Belarussian all in one place. I love it.

There will always be a higher price for the imported items. Although 1 pound more considering how far they travelled.

339 rubles is 2.97 pounds today. A couple of weeks ago it was 2.86 pounds, the pound has grown slightly against the ruble. It is clear that transportation and customs costs some money. But this price will not stop the big fans of pringles, of which there are very few.🙂

Hello 😊

[@HatBilly2008]

Russell, Please keep track of prices, like eggs, bread, meats, And the price of snickers bars. Please show the prices and update us on up or down. Thank you.

[@MsMelkus]

Popular chocolate bars prices in Russia is a the most unstable thing in the world. Stores add 100% profit and then randomly make discounts up to 50% on it. I like Ritter Sport and I know a store with permanent discount on it. They only change a set of tastes eligable for discount. So, with discount it costs ~110 rubles, but without it would be 160 in that store and up to 250 in a local store next to my home. There is a Russian market tradition for groccery stores to attract people with discounts. So one store can set a discount for sugar and another for bread one day. Next day they may change 10% of prices by adding or removing discounts to fight with nearby concurrent. It is a nightmare for stuff, but it is how it works in Russia. That is why it is very hard to track a real price for products which are popular. But in general, eggs and meat prices(especially chicken) went high starting from 2022(+50-80%), because a lot poor people got money from goverment and started to consume more products which they cannot afford before. I am talking about soldiers and military factories workers. Bread prices did not change a lot, because consumption did not change, same about luxury products like caviar. So it is very hard to gather a full picture.

In European countries you can find Fried Chicken like kfc in Stores like Lidl. I Hope Russia have Those too.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Sounds awesome. I wonder how it stacks up to Asian 7-11's. (Except for Hawaii, the US 7-11's suck) Anyway, lead the way, dude.

[@AVEXentSUCKS]

The corporate 7-11 from Japan announced an overhaul that would bring US 7-11s more fresh food offerings and services closer to what Hawaii gets. I'm very skeptical of their plans I just don't see this succeeding especially in places like Compton, Bakersfield, Camden NJ, etc.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

@AceFox40k No toasted sandwiches in these stores. A lot of emphasis on fresh food, like salads, soups and prepared meals.

It was a good thing for a lot of businesses.

[@AlexJacksonSmith]

24/7 stores in Germany, as far as I know, are non existent. I believe (perhaps wrongly) that the religious lobby ensure that shopping restrictions are maintained. Sundays for example and opening times the rest of the week. There are a few exceptions to the hours and days with places where travellers are... petrol stations, railway stations, airports for example. But they also have closing times. The modern shop with what looks like fresh food is impressive. This looks rather like the German REWE compact shops they have in cities. REWE tend to have far higher prices than the others. Was this shop more expensive than others stocking similar products? Not sure if you will answer this later, only 5 mins in so far... ;) Alex.,

7ll and Larsons never looked so good. Larsons is a good second, but the other?

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I know 7/11 very well. the second one I haven't heard from before.

[@kiyoshitakeda452]

@@TravellingwithRussell It's like 711, but in Japan only. 711 and Larson are much better in Japan. If you google "Larson" it explains.
