Decision trail

Reference ↗

Still working with dealers and has its own entity in Russia. The Japanese-based power tool manufacturer Makita, which significantly reduced its deliveries to Russia after February 2022, has begun to increase their imports into the country. Makita did not officially leave the Russian market, but due to logistics problems after the start of the military conflict in Ukraine, it reduced imports, ultimately reducing its share in the Russian Federation from 20% to 1.5%.
