The plant - bankrupt, and people suffer
The plant - bankrupt, and people suffer
Public spirit and LVZ going far from the best of times. Negladkoe introduction EGAIS, tough competition has led most of them to the financial collapse. And in that case remains three ways: bankruptcy, sale or redevelopment. The best option for all parties some of them described as difficult.
Many of the affected businesses owned by "Rosspirtpromu", which is simply not profitable for them to sell because the price issue - inherent dime. Better get their faces, but the regional authorities are strongly opposed by protecting large, sometimes, city, business.
This will SOEs belonging to the region, investors are increasingly allowed. In such cases, buyers are agreements to require the new owners to provide the region with jobs and other social benefits. Rightly or wrongly, the public Plant difficult to survive in today's alcohol market, which is rapidly being consolidated.
The massive devastation manufacturers because it is notorious alcohol crisis after entering EGAIS. Only in Siberia have been declared bankrupt minusinsky Minal "factory", Kansky LVZ, kuybyshevsky "Alcohol", hardly keep Krasnoyarsk "Yarich." In Altay region were forced to cease production Kamensky, Zmeinogorsky Barnaul and factories, until November 2006, was stopped largest producer of the Altaic "Altayspirtprom". Ceased production at the Novosibirsk Company Ltd. "Wine, drinks, beer" (VINAP), which previously produced up to 2 million provided annually - reported Continent "Siberia".
The easiest way to sell unprofitable businesses. Thus, scheduled for 12 February auction sales blokpaketov largest liquor Udmurtia plants - Sarapulskogo Glazovskogo and probably enhance the productive base of a holding company. The seller - a republican government. At the tender exhibited 25 72818 thousand Glazovskogo shares and 15.06 thousand Sarapulskogo shares. The starting price of securities - 1472 and 2760 Thousands rubles, respectively - wrote "expert".
By inactive businesses and larger companies at the regional level. Thus, the joint-stock company "Baykalfarm" decided on the purchase of two bankrupt factories in the Krasnoyarsk Territory: Kansky liquor ( "Rosspirtprom"), and alcohol Znamenskoye (structure of the plant "Minal").
"For us, the proposal for the acquisition of the two plants, which the administration has made us the edge, it seemed interesting. Krasnoyarsk region - is a big market for the production and sale of alcoholic products. Now we are 15 - place in Russia in the volume of production and the second in Siberia "- told the general director of" Michael "Baykalfarm Mathanov.
According to the "East-Siberian truth", the company is ready to invest in upgrading plants about 200 million rubles in two years, creating up to 150 jobs, but for three years to increase them to 300.
Another sad example - in the Chelyabinsk region, which has called into question the fate of two distilleries in Petropavlovke and Tyubuke - chelyabinsk.rfn.ru passes. "Initially Rosspirtprom" going to disband them, but for the core businesses openly regional authorities. Now, to determine the future of factories established a working group with the participation of regional government officials and representatives "Rosspirtproma", which is developing measures for the launch facilities. Moreover, "Rosspirtprom" agreed to continue the work of all alcoholic businesses in the area. That is, apart from two distilleries, after nearly three years of downtime will be open three more liquor-vodka companies, among them "Kazak Urals."
And the spirit Troitsky (Irkutsk Region), which also stands at a crossroads, to the aid of no one comes. Here, as in many affected businesses survived all that once was needed for the production: energohozyaystvo, sewerage and water supply system, cargo and equipment from maquila silos and bunkers, boiler rooms with four boilers and fuel tanks under the 1000 cubes each. There are mechanical and carpentry shops with a set of machines, a garage for 25 cars, a warehouse and Plant. But for this production, alas, not sufficient. As a result, high-quality professionals sitting without work. They remember the experience of redevelopment, which already have a business, and wonder why such action should not commit today. During the dry law, alcohol when many factories were closed, in the Trinity is not lost and became popular issue biokorma, kvasnoe wort, dry yeast and biomitsin.
These are just a few examples. Today in Russia are at the last gasp or have long faces dozens of plants without affairs. They have the machines and equipment, and personnel, and the desire to work… Not enough, perhaps only state support. To survive, or they need resurrection plan for the development of the industry, a guarantee that their products will be in demand. In part, this would be solved and the question of illegal products, because many of the desperately struggling for their existence businesses are likely to operate in a clandestine "third shift".

How to bring alcohol to a clean water?
How to bring alcohol to a clean water?
The Federal Tax Service has prepared a proposal for the withdrawal of the Union of Producers of alcohol products (SPAP) to change the order of calculating excise and strengthen control over the traffic in alcohol, alcohol and Alcohol products. Letter sent to the FNS Administration of the President of Russia, the Russian Government and Defense Ministers of Russia.
Today, the joint efforts of FNS and SPAP aimed at improving the regulation of alcohol and alcoholic products. As we wrote Alconews.ru, FNS has produced "The concept of worship spirits industry", which proposes to reduce the excise duty on alcohol to 100 rubles per liter, charging him only with the spirits. As a result, at the expense 100 - per collection and tax base growth, the amount of money collected in the budget still must grow, as it is understood that "gray" vodka will be available from the shadows.
The concept provides for 100 - percent excise tax prepayments in the budget in a sale of ethyl alcohol and spirits producers spirtsoderzhaschey product or providing a bank guarantee. According to FNS proposed scheme, the payment of excise duty when establishing uniform rates implemented in full and spirits producer spirtsoderzhaschey products when purchasing alcohol produced in Russia. Currently, according to the letter FNS, excise agreed on the positions of all the relevant ministries and agencies.
SPAP, in turn, suggested that the excise uplachivalsya buyers in the purchase of alcohol, with the spirit payers will not be accepted, at a price that is not a product of excise duty. But, according to FNS, it can trigger the growth of illegal trafficking in alcohol. While seemingly much more? A possible reason for the lack of tax see assurances that the legal alcohol volume, shipments from the plant at a price no excise would coincide with the actual volumes.
At the same time, FNS SPAP supported proposals to set minimum prices for alcoholic products, as well as increased responsibility, including criminal, for the production and trafficking of illegal alcohol production. Coincided organizations and positions on Wednesday, which is widely considered to be one of the main instruments to combat illegal alcohol production. Now these questions are waiting for harmonization at the highest level.
