In Russia for the year was 7.4% less producers of strong alcohol. Now there are 377. This is reported by “Vedomosti” with reference to “Contour.Focus”.
Why is that? There are several reasons. Demand is falling. The market is consolidating. And small companies, especially those that made vodka, can't compete with big producers. They either have to sell their business or close down.
Since the beginning of the year, the number of manufacturers has decreased by 6% – by 24 companies. And business liquidations were 72% more than a year earlier.
