Former business ombudsman and founder of the Anderson network, Anastasia Tatulova, did not confirm media reports about tax evasion and inspections by the Federal Tax Service.
The day before, Shot wrote on the Telegram channel that Tatulova faces up to five years in prison. According to the channel, we are talking about tax evasion and “business fraud.”
According to Shot, the entrepreneur divided her business into dozens of legal entities, which allowed her to reduce her tax payments.
Shot also indicated that after the sale of Anderson to Vkusville for 600-800 million rubles, Tatulova left for Portugal.
“All my taxes have been paid, I am not aware of any claims against me personally for any services. We are and have always been a socially responsible company, we created jobs, we paid market wages, we paid all taxes and we did a lot of charity work,” Tatulova commented on the situation to Forbes.
The last checks on the Anderson network were carried out about a year ago, continues the businessman. In November 2022, a hundred FSN agents invaded 17 chain establishments with orders to confiscate documents and equipment.
Tatulova then described the controls as a “large-scale operation” to expel her from the country. As Tatulova told RB.RU, he had long received threats because of his position on the destruction of small and medium-sized businesses by the state.
Earlier this month, Vkusville bought the main assets of the Anderson coffee chain.
