RIO - Leninsky is the best shopping centre in 2014

At the XI 'Rating of Russian Shopping Centres 2014' annual gala awards ceremony, Tashir's RIO on Leninsky Prospekt, has been recognised as the best. The awards ceremony took place on April 22, and was attended by over 250 representatives of the leading companies in the field of commercial real estate and retail. The expert jury, made up of the traditional commercial real estate industry professionals - and members of the Russian Council of Shopping Centres - appraised RIO on Leninsky Prospekt as the best new retail project, in the 'medium' category.

Viktor Grigoryan, director general of the Tashir Management company, received the symbol of victory: "This award is a professional appraisal of the work of all the employees who have participated in the project's implementation. I am sure RIO on Leninsky Prospekt will become a symbol of the commercial real estate market of Moscow".

RIO Leninsky opened in mid-2013 as part of the chain of shopping centres developed by Tashir Group, and today grows in popularity among visitors. The complex has a total area of about 75,000 square metres housing about 150 tenants under one roof. The centre became a premier location for Russian and international retail. The RIO Leninsky Prospekt introduced a number of new market brands both to the chain itself, and also to the Russian market as a whole. The complex has also afforded the opportunity for a number of leading brands to experiment and develop new formats for their stores.
