De Heus, a pet food company owned by one of the richest families in the Netherlands, has been sending medicine and other goods to Russian soldiers on the front in Ukraine through its Russian joint venture. In Russia, De Heus has a controlling stake in a joint venture with the Russian company MKorma. Under the name PJSC De Heus, they operate a plant in the city of Lakinsk, where they produce so-called premixes – concentrated feed for newborn piglets and chickens. The plant, acquired and modernized in 2009, claims to be the number one in Russia. De Heus is still active in Russia thanks to its “contribution to the main food chains.” De Heus Animal Nutrition has announced that it completely distances itself from recent statements and actions of its Russian joint venture MKorma. The Dutch animal feed company emphasizes that it no longer has any say in the company's activities in Russia. De Heus is pushing for a permanent departure from the country.

Geopolitical context and sanctions impact

De Heus is a Agriculture, Pharma & Healthcare company based in Netherlands. Current Russia status in our dataset is suspended: paused activity does not always mean a clean legal exit — licences, local entities and unpaid obligations can remain. Eastern Europe Impact translates those facts into business consequences — sanctions screening, supply-chain exposure and reconstruction-side opportunity — with transparent confidence labels rather than speculation.
