Borjomi mineral water supplies to Russian market

September 7, 2011, Kyiv, Ukraine.

The issue of resumption of the Borjomi supplies to Russia lies within the competence of the Headquarters of IDS Borjomi International (the “Group”). Negotiations and correspondence with the relevant authorities in Russia and Georgia are conducted by the representatives of the Group Headquarters.

Since 2006 the Group has been in contact with the Russian competent bodies regarding the return of Borjomi. We have filed a number of applications and requests on the subject matter with the Russian Federal Service on Customer’s Rights Protection.

The Borjomi mineral water fully complies with the requirements of all applicable laws and regulations in European Union, Georgia and Russia. The Group has all sufficient technological and legal capabilities to start the supplies of the Borjomi mineral water to Russia in the immediate future subject to mutual consent by the relevant Russian and Georgian authorities.
