/24-7PressRelease/ - NEW DELHI, INDIA, May 13, 2007 - The first two months of 2007 witnessed a 12.7% YOY increase in Russian household real disposable income, whereas real average monthly wages grew 17.5%, as said by the top statistics body in the country on April 3, 2007.
Rising disposable incomes have prompted all sorts of consumption. New foreign cars' sales touched 600,000 in 2005, representing 57% rise over the previous year (2004) and a six fold rise from 2001. Ownership of mobile phones has burgeoned from three million in the year 2000 to 80 million in the year 2006. With rise in income, by the year 2010 the amount spent of food is expected to come down to 35% and housing (accounting for 15%) will become the 2nd largest expenditure. Spending on communication, housing and transport will double.
Craving of Russians for joe (brewed coffee) indicates that, besides the rise in incomes, changing lifestyles & tastes are driving the boom in consumption. Before 1990s, Russians scarcely touched it, since they preferred tea.
