Board of Directors

Rostislav Ordovsky-Tanaevsky Blanco. Founder, President of the Rostik Group Corporation 

Rostislav Vadimovich is widely known above all as the founder of the Rostik Group Corporation, which manages a major chain of family restaurants of Rosinter Restaurants Holding JSC (Il Patio, Planet Sushi, T.G.I. Friday's, and Costa Coffee) in Russia, the CIS countries, the Baltics, and Europe. In 2007, the Holding became the first restaurant company to enter the Russian stock market (MICEX-RTS, ticker: ROST). The Rostik Group Corporation also includes CorpEstate Real Estate Holding, as well as Karlson Tourism, one of the leading tour operators in the CIS countries.  

Rostislav Ordovsky-Tanaevsky Blanco is the first entrepreneur to be awarded the title of "Person of the Year" twice in a national competition (in 2001 and 2002).

In 2006, Rostislav won the national round of the "Entrepreneur of the Year" competition (Ernst & Young), and in June of 2007, he represented Russia in world finals in Monte Carlo. In 2009, Rostislav became the winner of the Hamburg Foodservice Prize 2009, a restaurant "Oscar" (within the framework of the International Foodservice Forum and the Internorga Trade Show) for bringing growth and innovation to the Russian restaurant market.  

Having noticed a change in consumer demand, when people became pickier about the quality of products, and having realized that today's shopping centers and farmers markets do not satisfy customer needs for natural products, Rostislav Vadimovich developed the idea of creating a fundamentally new trade format. That is how the construction of a chain of farmers markets under the trademark EcoBazaar began.  

Rostislav Vadimovich continues to introduce innovative ideas into Russian business through a synergy of international experience and local market, which always yields excellent results.
