Statement on trade with Russia

With the recent escalation in the Russo-Ukrainian war, including allegations of severe human rights violations on Ukrainian territory, we have taken the difficult decision to cease shipments to the Russian Federation, effective immediately.

We understand that this has an impact on customers within the Russian Federation, however we cannot continue business within any state who consistently acts against our ethical principles. This decision comes in line with our code of ethics, as stipulated within our constitution.

We would like to stress that owing to the Russian Federation’s ongoing internal human rights violations, including malice displayed towards members of the LGBTQIAP+ community, we have never sourced any ingredients or raw materials from Russia. Our supply chain will continue to exclude Russian suppliers, and as a result it remains unaffected by this decision.

We hope that this conflict can be resolved through peaceful, diplomatic means.
