OREANDA-NEWS The goods of companies that guaranteed the continuation of supplies to Russia are excluded from the list for parallel imports, the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Denis Manturov told reporters on the sidelines of the international industrial exhibition Innoprom. According to him, the adjusted list was submitted for registration to the Ministry of Justice."This mechanism works. We have recently submitted an amended list to the Ministry of Justice.  Including companies that continue to supply their products to our market and have not left the market. Therefore, we have excluded them from this list," he said.

On the contrary, the list has been expanded by a number of brand names whose deliveries have stopped in the Russian Federation. These are, in particular, BMW and Siemens. The Ministry of Industry and Trade clarified that Lego products were also added to the list.

The companies excluded from the list were Wilo (pumping equipment for water supply, heating, ventilation, air conditioning), Duracell (galvanic cells, batteries, accumulators) and Merries (baby hygiene products).

In early May, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation published a list of more than 50 categories of goods that will be available for parallel import. It includes a variety of items: from plants to medicines, from soap to weapons. In terms of technology and electronics, the list includes products from brands such as Panasonic, Apple, Intel, Samsung, Dyson, Electolux, GoPro, Asus, JBL, Logitech and many others. The largest Russian marketplaces - Wildberries, Ozon and Yandex.Market - have declared their readiness to work with goods imported under the parallel import scheme.
