Dixie Press Service. The story of dixie: a thorny path to success

Good evening, I want to tell you what happened to me, at the moment with the current employee of the Dixy company in Yaroslavl. Employed since February 1, 2018 as a regional manager in the Volga Regional Administration under the leadership of director Gabidulin Alexei Alexandrovich. During my work in the company, I made every effort to correct the situation in the sector entrusted to me, consisting of 8 stores. I reacted instantly to all working moments, tried to draw out the results, had no reprimands, penalties. Then it turned out that I went on sick leave and I was informed that the company had made decisions with me leave without explaining exactly how to leave. The sick leave was long, more than 2 months, during which time they called me on the phone and offered to write a letter of resignation of my own free will, although I still don’t understand how this could be done while being on sick leave. As a result, the management made a decision and hired another regional manager zhera, while I was on sick leave. As a result, the sick leave is over, I went to my workplace September 10, 2018 and here is the result. Director of the Volga Regional Administration Gabidulin A.A. called me and offered to write a letter of resignation, stating that there could be no other format for terminating the contract, stating that the company would not pay anything. In response to my refusal to write a letter of my own free will, it was immediately announced that I already have some kind of reprimand, about which I know nothing and I have not signed a single document, there was also an incomprehensible reaction to me about the unwillingness to continue the dialogue, how should I work as an existing employee, because the sector for which I am responsible has already been transferred to another to the regional manager. The solution to this issue was redirected to the territorial head, who also most likely does not understand how I should work further. I was completely disabled all resources, e-mail, corporate portal, PBI. An hour passed, the second went, the head of the security service came to the office Akimov P.N. and called me to a conversation, but at the same time he insisted that I leave my personal belongings and phone, otherwise the conversation would not take place. And the conversation did not take place, because. I refused to do so. What is going on? What are the methods? Throughout the civilized world, the termination process employment contract is not some egregious fact. At the moment, I am under pressure from my supervisors who are not ready for a dialogue on termination of the employment contract by agreement of the parties, who clearly decided that I would be fired under any article, the goal is clear, to squeeze me out by any legal methods and, at the same time, impose paperwork as much as possible. simple questions it is necessary to put it in the format of threats, indirect of course, but with a clear understanding that life will be spoiled for me. The situation hung in the air, all the leaders left for a strategic session. By the end of the working day, after contacting hotline I was still connected to e-mail. What's next .... I would very much like to reach an understanding in the situation and in a civilized manner, without prejudice to anyone's interests, to resolve the issue. Please pay attention to this fact and give, if possible feedback depends on a situation. Otherwise, I will have to defend my rights in court with the involvement of a lawyer.

2014: No. 4 on food sales in Russia

In 2014, Dixy, owned by Igor Kesaev and Sergey Katsiev, co-owners of Megapolis, the largest cigarette distributor in Russia, for the first time managed to overtake the German Metro Cash & Carry Russia in terms of revenue, follows from Infoline data. In previous years, Dixy occupied the fifth place in the ranking of the largest Russian food sellers, but at the end of 2014 it is already in 4th place and is second only to the market leaders - Magnit, X5 Retail Group (Pyaterochka, Perekrestok "And" Carousel ") and" Auchan ".

Dixy Group has been in the top 5 since the acquisition of Victoria Group in 2011. The goal is to enter the big leagues Russian retail has long been completed, says Ilya Yakubson, president of the Dixy Group of Companies. “But, of course, the fifth always strives to overtake the fourth, and we are glad that in 2014 we finally managed to do this,” he rejoices. The gap with Auchan in terms of revenue is almost twofold. There is no goal to overtake a competitor, Yakubson admits: “The goal is profitable business growth.”

Dixy's sales growth in 2014 accelerated to 27% against 22% in 2013. Metro's revenue grew twice as slow as Dixy's - by 13%, Infoline calculated.

Dixy is set to double last year's revenue by the end of 2017, Yakubson said.

“In the medium term, we will continue to open stores in the regions where we already have a presence, as well as expand the map of presence in the territories that can be served through the existing structure of the network's distribution centers,” the top manager added.

In 2015, the Dixy chain will grow by 500 stores, thus increasing by 20%.

The situation in 2014 was in favor of discounters and convenience stores, says Infoline CEO Mikhail Burmistrov. After the food embargo and the devaluation of the ruble, consumers are forced to save. And so they switch from non-chain retail and small chains to larger and more competitive discounter chains, continues Burmistrov. By the end of 2014, this became especially noticeable: December sales of Dixy convenience stores jumped by 39.1%. The main competitors in this format - Magnit and Pyaterochka - also saw a sharp increase in revenue in December, while hypermarket chains recorded a slowdown in growth rates, some even lost customers.
