I`m working in let`s say chemistry. And when last sanctions turned on and lots of giants like Chevron and BP stopped working in Russia we had some problems with components and ready products but within a year russian companies started producing lots of needed components or buying them in China for cheaper prices. So now we are making same things cheaper and sometimes better than we did that in cooperation with western companies before. And yes we had lots of problems at the start but in the long period of time all I can say - THANK YOU FOR THOSE SANCTIONS! They`ve taught us not to be lazy and not to count on anyone!

@@Kiyoone I remember years ago when I had my first Starbucks coffee. My city didn't have one but I heard all the hype of how great Starbucks coffee was. I got my first chance at the airport in Detroit Mi while flying to Arizona. I saw a Starbucks there and stood in line eager to taste how good it would be. At the counter I told the girl I'd like a large coffee. She asked me how I wanted it. Just black I said (as that's how I always drink coffee). She gave me a very strange look and asked if I was sure? Yes, just black. II got my coffee and found a seat and eagerly took a sip. It was terrible! Bitter beyond belief. I think used motor oil would have been better. I took another sip and it was the same. I got up, found a trash bin and tossed it. I told people about my experience and they all said you have to add syrups and flavorings to make it good. I like coffee. not syrups and flavorings. I've never been to a Starbucks again.

[@stanspb763]

You can get a full dinner in a nice restaurant for 4 bucks in St Petersburg so just like back home in California where I left 24 years go to settle in St Petersburg, Starbuck was expensive back then. But I have never has a cup of coffee in my life, and never drank beer before moving here, and liked Baltika 3 but later found the wide varieties of craft beer interesting. Overall food products are better because they do not allow all the chemicals or GMO and as you could see on any street, Russians are more fit and attractive in style and grooming. Sasha was definitely Russian even if she lived in the US. The video was really well done, pro level production, with a real script that was researched. Another adjustment was the western brand name clothes, made in Asia, have been replaced with Russian brands, probably produced in the same SEA factories. Overall the sanctions have been good for Russia and getting away over priced undervalued products.Bigger items like refrigerators and washing machines are produced here with a wide range of local brands. I replace the old stove, washing machine, hot water heater, and most recently the old small refrigerator that is much large with great features, 545 Liter volume (even calls me on my phone if someone left one of the doors ajar,) There are hundred of reasons why living in Russia is really nice, and I could never live in the US again due to becoming used to safe street, everyone being friendly and zero stress, 1000x the access to culture, the beauty of the city, and how nice everyone is. Each of my 5 short trips by to California reminds me why I left. The division, poverty, anger, hostility between all 1000 or more faction ad 67 genders, aggressive police, extreme cost of living for poor quality, the public behavior of people wokism, political corruption and how every media form and every corporation and every government official lies about everything to the public

I remember that Yugoslavia had its own brands already first as the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (kingdom of Serbia) and later Yugoslavia after 1945. We had everything and produced everything plus all the brands were big with good quality and good food taste. Then came what came from them which always creates chaos and separatism. Unfortunately, sanctions took hard on little Serbia so all our factories were more or less closed or bought by the west, our brands bought the west cheaply, now they own the market but it doesn't end there. They buy our clean spring water and our agro land. otherwise the west only has name(brand) everything inside comes from outside. But Russia has the capacity and most show its citizens that the grass is not greener on the other side

The "sanctions" were in fact a great gift to Russia. It helped limit the control of the country from increasingly insane western corporations (at least to some extent). "Sanctions" are an absolutely necessary step to regain sovereignty. I hope my country comes under similar Western sanctions 😅 We are a small country, but before 1989 we managed to be one of the world's most successful exporters. We had no debts (other countries owed us on the contrary), we could produce almost everything. But after 1989, huge corporate sharks came from the West and smaller companies didn't stand a chance. Today we are basically a Western colony, we have lost everything except our houses (and even that is being worked on now - the current puppet government is deliberately making such monstrous debts that we will soon lose the whole country).

Haha about the Valio/Viola thing. Same thing happened in Finland when Lidl arrived. They had milk in the store under their own brand but no one bough those. Even though they were made by Valio and Arla. The package was just different 😂 Honestly, I wonder how many companies have a buyback clause in some undisclosed section and on very fine print of the sales documents.

[@MegaSockenschuss]

@@Valokaari Milk is milk, I myself couldn't care less about what company or supermarket I buy it in. Or how the package looks. What's wrong with people, or what's wrong with me? :D

[@Valokaari]

@MegaSockenschuss People are slaves to their habits and sometimes those are very conservative. One thing Finns liked was milk from Valio or Arla. That meant it was from Finland. When Lidl brought Milbona, people were paranoid that it was not from Finland and if it was not, it might not be as good. Lidl relented and stopped selling those under the Milbona-brand. Now the milk they sell under that brand is sourced from smaller Finnish dairy farms directly.

[@MegaSockenschuss]

@@Valokaari Aah, I thought what Lidl did in the end was somewhat a standard already in Finland. Here in Germany it seems like most milk brands (or their sub brands in the discounters) even advertise on the package/bottle that the milk is made and sourced in the region. And if not, it's written on the package/bottle somewhere where it's made.

Удар ведётся не по РФ, а по EU. Деиндустриализация, крупнейший в истории отток капитала (частично - вернут), снижение конкуренции, потеря рынков сбыта. Поэтому, контекст данного репортажа поверхностный и уводит зрителя от самой проблемы. Важно понимать: от принимаемых решений страдает бизнес. Каким бы он ни был - он работал для вас и на вас зарабатывал. Помимо транснациональных монстров (Индитекс, Икеа, автозаводы - типа такого), под раздачу попал обычный, честный, частный бизнес. Для русского бизнеса ситуация - это возможности (которые можно и не реализовать). Для русского потребителя - растущие издержки. Для Европы, увы, это ограбление века. Поймут только умные.

Carlsberg was removing Russian brands and replacing them with its own for the sake of increasing profits by reducing tax payments. It was a tricky move. For the use of the brand it was necessary to pay royalties to the owner of the brand located abroad. And the owner of the brand legally is not Carlsberg at all. But by a strange coincidence )))) both the brand owner and the factory are ultimately owned by the same people. As a result, the money as royalty for the brand goes abroad, and also the taxable base is reduced by the amount of royalty. Taxes can be paid less. Profit!!! So when the guys from Carlsberg tell me how "white and fluffy" they are and how evil Russians have "bumped them off", it makes me laugh!!! Whoever shouts "hold the thief" the most is the thief!

Нет, все равно выпускаем вредную западную продукцию под другим названием... Балтика была замечательным пивом, даже гостям из Германии понравилась... Карлсберг угробил его... Эти сволочи покупают у нас производства, но продукцию готовят, как для людей третьего сорта... Они превратили наше пиво в пойло... Когда-то мы завидовали, что на западе столько сортов пива.... А я бы сейчас променял ВСЕ сорта на то, что выпускал наш пивзавод... Обычное Жигулевское, за которым люди за 200 км приезжали.... Не повторяйте ни за кем, придумывайте свое, возрождайте свое... Если думаете, что мы ни на что не способны, поинтересуйтесь новым российским брендом - продукцией часового завода Ракета... Возродил завод англичанин... Так что, у нас у самих ума нет ?

[@АбызСейжузов]

Это не закончится никогда, пока российская культура находится в таком упадке. Почему весь мир ест пиццу, ведь есть сотни видов лепёшек, которые куда вкуснее? Потому что мы все воспитаны на их кинематографе, где пицца это часть культуры, блюдо на праздники и на каждый день. С кока-колой также, с пивом также, с одеждой тоже также. Но и о качестве не стоит не забывать. Российская техника зачастую халтурная, несовершенная и ненадёжная. Как пример российский автопром, последние пятьдесят лет это один большой позор, страна с такими ресурсами производит хорошие авто только по западным чертежам. Это ужасно. Сами себе создаём плохое имя.

[@fund-obvi]

Россия приобрела уникальный опыт, когда в товаре меняется этикетка но не меняется содержание. Многие бренды просто обесценились, так как на пример вместо Coca Cola стали покупать Добрый Cola, что по вкусу одно и тоже. Вместо пива Paulaner вполне отличное Ярославское пиво Юзберг. Со временем привыкаешь к другим брендам и старые уже не покупаешь. В этом есть огромная польза как для покупателей так и для производителей которым тяжело бороться с монополистами, так как покупатели начинают проблвать другие продукты и часто находят аналогичный продукт или да же лучше. Но это в основном касается продкутов питания. С одеждой, бытовой техникой, электроникой и автомобилями ситуация немного другая, однако медленно но верно то же улучшается. Ну а что касается главного вопроса этого видео, то безусловно уход иностранных брендов из России помог экономике России, так как прекратился вывод денег за границу и деньги стали работать внутри страны на её благо.
