Over the past two years, the company stopped accepting cargo at Russian ports and sold the Delo group of companies a stake in the port holding Global Ports, warehouses in St. Petersburg and Novorossiysk and more than 800 refrigerated containers to the Polar Star company.
In the same year, Maersk began the liquidation procedure of its subsidiaries – Maersk Solutions LLC and Maersk LLC. Both companies ended liquidation proceedings in 2023 and resumed operations.

They noted that Russian organizations, when choosing suppliers, will be determined in favor of “friendly countries.”
