Core Tip: Carlsberg Ukraine pledged to resume supplies as soon as the situation in the country’s east gets back to normal though the political crisis in Ukraine certainly has a negative impact on its business
Carlsberg UkrCarlsberg aine has stopped beer supplies and sales in the east Ukrainian cities of Kramatorsk and Slavyansk over the situation in Ukraine’s eastern regions, the company’s press service told ITAR-TASS on Tuesday.

Carlsberg Ukraine pledged to resume supplies as soon as the situation in the country’s east gets back to normal though the political crisis in Ukraine certainly has a negative impact on its business.

According to Nielsen, Carlsberg-Ukraine had the second biggest share (27.9%) in Ukraine’s beer market; its share in Ukraine’s market of rye beer known as “kvas” accounts for 28% in volume terms. Carlsberg Ukraine’s net income stood at 621 million hryvnias in 2013 while its profit was estimated at 3.47 billion hryvnias.

Carlsberg Ukraine is part of the Carlsberg Group, one of the world’s leading ale brewers. Its net profit dropped by 2.4 % to 5.47 billion Danish krones ($1 billion) in 2013.
