On behalf of the FKP "Sojuzplodoimport" holder in due course of the trade marks of the Russian vodkas we have established a company "Al Maidan Alco F.Z.E." as distributor. The company is based in Fujairah, United Arab Emirates.

We take activities to import, supply and re-export original Russian vodka Stolichnaya, Moskovskaya, Russkaya, made in Russia to Duty Free shops, Diplomatic and bonded warehouses of the Middle East, India, African Continent and South-East Asia.

The company Al Maidan Alco F.Z.E, will prevent supplies of counterfeit vodkas of SPI Group from Latvia and other countries to UAE and Gulf markets.
