Analysis |
Russia is a vast market, with a population of 147 million and it is
currently under the influence of a major economic crisis, which started
in mid 1998. Although Sri Lanka's major export product to Russia is
tea, there could be potential for some other consumer products as
well. Sri Lankan apparels, porcelain and ceramic products, rubber
and rubber products, confectionery products, canned fruit juices and
other processed food products, desiccated coconut, gems and jewellery,
spices and leather products will have good demand in the Russian market. |
