	Raisio to begin Russian margarine production (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Raisio said that it planned to continue production of some of the existing product lines at the dairy group, which is based in Istra, some 60km from Moscow, but that the main reason for the purchase was to boost sales of its margarine products.
		Raisio’s margarine exports to Russia have collapsed in recent years, the company said, due not only to import duties of 15 per cent designed to protect local producers but also to increased competition from these local players who operate on a much lower cost base.
