A new range of products with the president's seal of approval could soon be found in Russia's stores, a news report said Tuesday.
At first, meat and dairy products only will be chosen to carry the new Kremlin Quality brand name, but in future it could adorn a variety of high quality Russian goods and domestic products, Vladimir Kozhin, head of the presidential property management department, told Rossiiskaya Gazeta.
Over 32 trademarks have been registered by the president's administration department, including Kremlin, Kremlin Bear and Kremlin Premium. The federal company Trading House: Kremlin is the owner of these trademarks.
Kremlin and Government endorsed goods have been produced at the Nepetskino complex in the Kolomna district to the south of Moscow for 70 years. Nepetskino is expected to open a new production facility in the near future.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
