To conduct the fundamental study “The Market for Frozen Fruits, Berries, and Vegetables of Ukraine and Russia”, Fruit-Informhas monitored frozen fruit and vegetable departments in retail chains of Kiev and Moscow. The results showed that the share of domestic brands on supermarket shelves in Kiev increased by 4 percentage points year-on-year.

Frozen vegetables and berries took the second place with the increase of 6 percentage points. The share of domestic brands in the segments of frozen mushrooms and frozen vegetable mixes became 4 percentage points higher.
