Ukrainian construction supermarkets Epicenter and Novaya Liniya have figured out how to raise money for the ATO and work in Crimea
Kyiv, December 22 (PolitNavigator, Maxim Karpenko) – The Epicenter chain of construction supermarkets is collecting money for the ATO, but at the same time refuses to close its stores in Crimea, which the Ukrainian authorities consider an occupied territory.
This is stated in the story of the “Schemes” program on the “First National” TV channel of Ukraine.

Interestingly, the general director of the Epicenter K network, Petr Mikhailyshyn, assured journalists that business in Crimea had been curtailed.
“Unfortunately, when Crimea actually passed from Ukraine to Russia, Epicenter curtailed its work. We rent out premises that belong to Epicenter, a company that carries out operational activities,” said Mikhailyshyn.
However, journalists from the “Schemes” program found out that today the premises of “Epicenter” are used by the company “Novacenter K”, which was registered in Russia back in April of this year. In addition, the same company now uses the “New Line” trademark in Simferopol and Sevastopol, which also specializes in the sale of building materials. And the general director of Novacenter K is Yuri Nosach, who also works as the commercial director of Epicenter K. At the same time, the authors of the program assure that construction materials were bought from the Ukrainian Epicenter at reduced prices by the Almera company and sold to the Russian Novacenter.
“And this is also, probably, an attempt not to pay taxes to the Ukrainian budget in the proper amount,” TV journalists believe.
