Vologda retail rolled back 30 years after the announcement of the Prohibition Law. While the authorities want to sell alcohol two hours a day, local darkroom operators are preparing for electronic queues, lists and coupons.
Governor-rapper Filimonov, who recently tested officials for literacy, at the end of October announced an imminent restriction on the sale of intoxicating drinks in the region. From 12 to 14 on weekdays, as usual on weekends. Because the Russian North is dying out from drunkenness, and it’s time to save the people. Everything comes into force on March 1, 2025.
Commerce began to fuss. So, alcohol markets are now stocking strong drinks. Fill your cart online and pick it up in the store at the permitted time.
Alcotaxi services have also become more active. They deliver bottles 24/7 right to your door. The price is slightly higher than the store price – for any budget. XO cognac for 28k, sparkling Dom Perignon for 40k, Chivas Regal whiskey for 18k. For simple workers – beer for 150, champagne from 800, vodka from 700. Bonus – cheese, meat, vegetable and fruit slices for the feast.
And whether Filimonov’s measure will work, what consequences to expect, and whether it’s true that someone wants to “drive out” the inconvenient chains of alcohol markets in Vologda – we looked into it in Mash Room.
