Why in Siberia production of alcohol sharply grew

Show original
Legal sellers of alcohol in Siberia refused trade in a counterfeit
Production of alcohol in Siberian Federal District in the first quarter of the 2017th grew by 42 percent in comparison with the similar last year's period. Thus, as experts note, Siberians any more did not begin to drink, simply from the market the illegal leave and it is succeeded by qualitative firm production.

the Main gain is the share

according to the head of INTERREGIONAL ADMINISTRATION OFFICE FEDERAL SERVICE ON REGULATION OF ALCOHOLIC MARKET ON SIBERIAN FEDERAL DISTRICT Krupin Aleksey, such situation in the market developed thanks to Unified State Automated Information System introduction. At legal retail shops opportunity to sell "fake" alcohol therefore the need for legal drinks data about which are recorded in system grows was gone. And all "left" production went to informal retail - the outlets not connected to the Unified State Automated Information System and realizing alcohol without the license.

by means of experts can estimate

, illegal trade in a hard liquor in this or that region is how developed.

the Siberian leader with a minus sign in this sense became Omsk region where in January-March of this year the share of legal vodka in the total amount of its retail realization made only 26 percent. Nearby the next Novosibirsk region where this indicator is only four percent higher, and also Altai territory and Kemerovo region with 44 and 46 percent respectively left. Thus last year to Omsk region the volume of legal sales of strong alcohol made 1,9 liters per capita that is twice less, than on the average on Siberian Federal District, and in respublika Altay - two liters (there, by words Krupin Aleksey, the real indicator is even lower as calculations do not consider the tourists coming to the region which number only grows).

- Hardly someone will have doubts that level of the use of this drink so strongly could not fall. We understand that the structure of consumption of alcoholic products in the federal district is approximately identical, and the lowest value of this indicator in certain subjects Russian Federation in relation to the neighboring regions testifies to a shadow turn of vodka, - Krupin Aleksey emphasizes.

the Problem need to carry out also "unwillingness" of supervisory authorities inspections of retail shops. For all last year to Omsk region them was only fourteen, and in respublika Altay at all one. For comparison: in the next Altai territory experts carried out 78 checks. But, anyway, in legal retail network Siberian Federal District counterfeit alcohol almost did not remain. After all and channels of its deliveries stop even more often.

One of the last examples - joint operation of Novosibirsk police officers and field investigators of Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation , the withdrawn nearly eight thousand half liter bottles of "fake" vodka from the warehouse organized on milk plant closed nowadays in the village of Ubinskoye. Hundred boxes with a fake under brands of a low and average price segment were bought by businessmen in the regional center that then will go on shelves of retail shops.

By the way

As experts, a considerable share of the counterfeit alcohol realized in regions of Siberia, - at all note a substitute, and cheap, but quite qualitative production imported from the next Kazakhstan. In Unified State Automated Information System system it is not considered therefore it is realized illegally. Until recently restrictions on import of the Kazakhstan vodka did not exist, however, as wrote website "Rossiyskaya gazeta" (release of "Economy of Siberia" for March 23 of this year), now State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation considers amendments to the law on state regulation of production and an alcohol turn. In particular, they assume to limit the volume of the alcoholic products taken out and imported into the countries Eurasian Economic Union by natural persons, five liters on the person.
