Stoli, a top vodka brand with a global presence, filed for bankruptcy last week, the media are reporting.
In the bankruptcy filing, the company listed many reasons for its financial failings, including legal disputes with the Russian government, the country’s confiscation of two distilleries worth around $100 million, and a ransomware attack that allegedly happened in August this year.
