OREANDA-NEWS Russian producers of alcoholic beverages began to optimize production against the background of international sanctions and trade restrictions imposed by Western countries against Moscow. This is reported by Kommersant with reference to Rosaccreditation data.
Thus, a large producer of alcohol GC "Rust" Rustam Tariko, which owns the brands "Russian Standard", "Green Brand" and others, was forced to transfer the bottling of his whiskey Darrow from Scotland to Russia. Alcoholic beverages will be produced at a factory in the Moscow region.
The cognac producer also had to optimize production. Thus, the Kaliningrad plant "Alliance-1892", responsible for the release of the brand "Old Konigsberg", instead of French raw materials began to buy cognac distillate in Georgia. However, due to the imposed trade restrictions, it was the whiskey category that suffered the most.
Several major foreign brands, including Johnnie Walker, Jack Daniel's, White Horse, have received permission to supply by parallel import instead of importing directly from manufacturers.
"In January — September, the supply of the drink to the Russian Federation decreased by 57% year—on—year, to 10.9 million liters, only in the third quarter - by 71%, to 2.9 million liters year-on-year," the material reports.
On November 9, RBC, with reference to market participants, reported a possible shortage of tequila, bourbon and cognac for the New Year holidays. This will be due to difficulties with the delivery of alcohol from foreign producers due to international sanctions against Russia. As a result, there may be a shortage of popular brands on store shelves: Moët champagne, Chivas Regal whiskey, Baileys liqueur and others.
