Currently Olainfarm does not see any significant threats for its sales to Ukraine and Russia.  However, if the European Union and its partners fail to solve the situation in Ukraine, the outcome could have a negative impact not only on company’s sales in Ukraine bus also in Russia.

„Not only Ukrainian market is important to Olainfarm, Russian one even more crucial, therefore I do hope that the all parties will get involved in solving the current situation and the conflict will be settled peacefully,” says Valerijs Maligins, chairman of JSC Olainfarm.
