MAGNIT STARTS MAKING READY-TO-EAT PRODUCTS FOR CONVENIeNCE STORES 
 
Krasnodar, Russia (July 30, 2021): Magnit PJSC (MOEX and LSE: MGNT; the Company, Magnit), one of Russia's leading 
retailers, started making ready-to-eat products for its convenience format in Magnit Family supermarkets. The pilot 
project was launched in Krasnodar and Murmansk, where customers can already buy a wide range of ready-to-eat meals. 
The production utilizes existing capacities of Magnit Family supermarkets; the Company only added special packaging 
equipment. Magnit has carefully selected products for the range to cover the main consumer scenarios (breakfast, lunch, 
dinner, quick meals). The assortment includes around 40 items: first and second courses, salads, breakfast and to-go 
meals, as well as various drinks, including morses and fresh juices. The range also includes vegetarian dishes. The 
Company plans to launch a separate brand for its own ready-to-eat line of products in the nearest future. 
Today, Magnit's ready-to-eat products are delivered to almost 50 stores in Krasnodar and Murmansk. The Company reports 
high demand for the range, with ham sandwiches along with Russian salad, vinegret and crab sticks being the most 
popular with customers. Based on the results of the pilot, Magnit will decide on scaling the project and expanding it 
to more stores over a wider geography.
