"Customs clearance has already been carried out. Our Chinese partners said that the cargo came in perfect condition. There are no claims to the quality, although it took 40 days to deliver the cargo (and customs control was carried out for several weeks – notice of TASS). Now there is already a placement on the shelves [of stores] in China", Serova said.
