Shoe chain Zenden closes stores due to tax claims for 12 billion rubles


17 March 15:40
The Zenden shoe chain is going bankrupt after on-site tax audits, company founder Andrei Pavlov said on social networks. In Krasnoyarsk, the store in the Planeta shopping center has already closed, but the branch in Mega continues to operate.
According to Pavlov, Dom Odezhdy LLC received claims for almost 12 billion rubles, including approximately 6 billion rubles in additional income tax charges and the same amount of fines and penalties. The company's accounts have been blocked since March 29, 2025, but the company continued to operate in such conditions.
The number of employees was reduced from 3,500 to 1,500 people. Pavlov predicts that almost all stores will close in the next month. Daily losses exceed 10 million rubles, plus about 8 million a day in penalties.
Write-offs affect not only the company itself, but also its counterparties – lessors and suppliers. The owner is worried that shoe manufacturers from Dagestan and Rostov-on-Don will suffer from bankruptcy.
