XI International Forum of Business and Government «Russian Retail Week»
«Russian Retail Week» is one of the largest and most significant industry events in the Russian retail market. In 2025, the Forum will take place for the eleventh time, during which it has earned the status not only as the largest platform for discussing trends and innovations in trade but also as the main connecting link between all participants in the consumer market.
«Russian Retail Week is a unique platform where retail and government come together for an open dialogue and collaborative search for solutions. We create an environment where every participant—from large chains and marketplaces to novice entrepreneurs—will find new opportunities for growth, establish valuable contacts, and strengthen their market positions. Together, we will lay the foundation for a prosperous future for Russian retail, define strategic directions for development, and develop effective tools that will help businesses become more competitive and successful,» emphasizes Andrey Karpov, Chairman of the Board of the Russian Association of Retail Market Experts.
The event will be held in Moscow from June 2 to 5, 2025, at the International Trade Center (Krasnopresnenskaya Embankment, 12) and will gather over 8,000 participants. Among them are more than 500 federal and regional retail chains, FMCG product suppliers, equipment providers, retail solutions, IT and service organizations, developers, equipment suppliers, the banking sector, and government bodies responsible for the development of the consumer market.
The business program of the Forum will include representatives from retail chains and marketplaces, such as X5 Group, Magnit, Lenta, the united company Wildberries and Russ, Lamoda, Yandex, Ozon, Detsky Mir, Sportmaster, Petrovich, Azbuka Vkusa, VkusVill, Globus, METRO, Kuiper, Lemana PRO, Snezhnaya Koroleva, Auchan, Okey, Spar, Yandex Lavka, Samokat, Dixie, Hoff, Askona, and many others.
The business program of the Forum covers all key aspects of retail: from technological innovations and e-commerce to HR, marketing, and ESG. Traditionally, an important topic is Wine Retail—everything about modern wine trade, from trends to technologies and products from Russian winemakers, which can be evaluated at specialized wine stands. The thematic tracks set the direction for discussions and allow participants to delve into the most pressing industry questions.
The Forum will feature an exhibition zone with more than 130 participants showcasing technological solutions and innovations for retail. The exhibition zone will become a center of business activity, where participants can hold negotiations, strengthen connections, and find new partners.
BIT company will showcase video analytics technologies in the retail sector at the RETAIL WEEK EXPO.
At stand A16, event participants will get to know one of the company’s key products — the information and analytics system «STOP-Shoplifter». This advanced solution for preventing shoplifting detects and records incidents in real time, providing prompt data exchange between retail outlets. The built-in alert system ensures continuous monitoring, helping to prevent thefts and minimize conflicts and potentially dangerous situations in stores.
Traditionally, within the framework of Retail Week, the winners of the professional industry competition RETAIL WEEK AWARDS will be awarded. In a solemn atmosphere, the most deserving representatives of Russian business, who made a significant contribution to the development of the retail market in 2025, will be recognized.
