Russia's Rosinter in the red

As Peach Report reported, Rosinter appointed Todd as president and chief executive in charge of its 387 sites in Russia and other nearby states earlier this year after a management shake-up.

Rosinter’s results—which cover a period well before Todd’s arrival; the year to end-December 2011—show a $9m loss, compared to a profit of a similar level last year, though sales rose 6.4% over 2011. Higher food prices and salaries had pushed down gross profit margins to 20.3%, from 23.8% a year earlier, the company said. Rosinter also reported substantial write-offs relating to closures.

Todd held a number of jobs at M&B, including managing director of its restaurants division and business development director.
