We are working on the development of the roadside service system, together with the enterprises of the tourism industry, we ensure the improvement of the quality of services," said Larisa Solomatina.

"The development of domestic tourism and the popularization of road trips have become a global national initiative. And here we see a synergy between those who like to travel around the country and Rosneft, Russia's largest retail network of gas stations. Today, in order to successfully develop the network, it is no longer enough just to sell first-class fuel. In addition, Rosneft offers its customers a wide range of goods and services. This not only makes traveling by car comfortable, but also contributes to the development of autotourism," said Elena Shishimorova, Deputy General Director for Retail Sales and Development at Tulanefteprodukt.
