The US$198.5m deal will see X5 take ownership of Paterson’s 82 supermarkets in and around Moscow, St Petersburg, Kazan and other cities in European Russia and the Urals.


X5 said that the deal will strengthen its presence in key geographic regions and increase its store count by approximately 25%.
