So, in the Samara Union of small enterprises food and processing industry consider that the bill in existing edition will lower the range of small producers in favor of large players. And there is already a lot of such responses, note in AKORT.

Now not sold sour cream or, say, apples small enterprises can start up

in repeated processing, send to a forage to animals. If to return goods will forbid, its utilization becomes a headache of distribution networks. They should look for ways of destruction goods, to change structure of purchases. To lower costs, they will start buying goods with the long term of realization. Such products are delivered generally by large producers. For example, them dairy products can be stored some weeks at the expense of preservatives and cost cheaper. As a result the share of natural products with a short expiration date in shops will be reduced, marks out Sergei Belyakov. Besides the monopoly of large suppliers can lead to a rise in prices.

to Retailers nevertheless would like to keep both the various range, and the acceptable prices therefore they demand that legislators approached to the solution of this question most deliberately." We want that decisions concerning trades were confirmed by experts", - Sergei Belyakov told. According to him, in the government promised to carry out an assessment of regulating influence of amendments before the second reading the bill.

Small producers of perishable goods are ready to accept back not sold goods

Meanwhile, already there were three new versions of amendments. However, two of them differ from each other a little. In the first option it is offered to forbid return of products with realization term less than 30 days, and in the second - less than 20 days. But it does not change the main point as all dairy and meat products fall under a ban, fruit and vegetables practically. The third option - a ban on rotation of products with realization term could become less than five days a compromise. In this case it will be a question generally about perishable dairy products. Such option is considered, by the way, by profile departments - the Ministry of Agriculture and Minpromtorg, note in AKORT.

retailers suggest to forbid

only return of socially significant goods with realization term less than five days. "If regulators take into account economic arguments, we have a chance of acceptance of reasonable version of the law", - the head of AKORT Sergei Belyakov noted.
