Cherkizovo Group and products win Healthy Nutrition awards in Russia

Cherkizovo Group was named the best meat producer at the annual Healthy Nutrition contest in Russia, the company announced this month.

The company's Petelinka product was the winner in the Best Meat Brand category, while its Pava-Pava turkey products received the special Consumer Choice award.

Healthy Nutrition seeks to attract public attention to health and, especially, healthy eating issues. Award winners are companies that made a significant contribution to encouraging and promoting healthy eating habits among consumers.

"We are happy that our company and brands have been named winners again. Healthy Nutrition awards not only testify to the superior quality and safety of our products, but also recognise our achievements in developing a healthy diet offering. These accomplishments have been acknowledged by industry experts and appreciated by our customers," said Anastasia Mikhailova, head of communications at Cherkizovo Group.

Petelinka is the most recognisable poultry brand in Russia. Its products are free from E-number additives or preservatives, and sourced from chickens raised exclusively on in-house feeds. Petelinka has been the top brand in Moscow, Russia, for many years. Since 2018, the brand also dominates the market in St Petersburg.
