In AR Crimea the bootleg juice production plant was shut down
In AR Crimea the tax militia officers restrained the activity of the bootleg juice production plant.
As it was reported by the Press Service of State Tax Administration of Ukraine, the production line was established by the chief of one commercial firm in the premises owned by an industrial enterprise in Simferopol.
This mini-plant produced vegetable and fruit juices by means of water dilution of tomato paste, fruit jam and vegetable puree. The mixture with flavoring additives and agents were poured in one and three liter cans. The fake juices were produced in unsanitary conditions.
On the commodities the labels of the national producers were stuck and then juice was sold in the rayons of the Republic; it was promoted as a natural juice.
This enterprise possessed neither license for the legal business activities nor the approval of the sanitary-epidemiological station.
During the inspection in the enterprise premises more than 10,000 cans (0.5 l) of jam and tomato paste, more than 6 tons of fruit puree, and also about 0.5 tons of plum juice ready for sale were found.
At the present moment the sales channels of the fake commodities are being specified.
