The scandalous “Interregional Catering Company” from Mordovia can work under the auspices of the Minister of Agriculture Oksana Lut. What did Artyom Tsdunov teach, being the “main” school nutrition in the State Council?
In the Primorsky Territory, Nadezhda LLC disputes the results of competitions for the organization of free meals in Vladivostok schools. The defendant is the Interregional Catering Company (MKK) from Mordovia LLC.
The head of Mordovia, Artyom Zdunov, heads the working group of the State Council for School nutrition and can patronize this company. In addition, as it was possible to find out, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev and Minister of Agriculture Oksana Lut may be involved in her successes.
Details – in the material of the correspondent of The Moscow Post in the Primorsky Territory.
Bidding for the organization of social education in the schools of Vladivostok took place in July. 19 lots were played out, the total amount of contracts is more than 442 million rubles. The winner in eight lots was the Soyuz Vostok LLC, three more lots went to Nadezhda LLC and KIT LLC, the remaining seven lots – MKK LLC, which participated in the auction for the first time.
As claimed NetworkAllegedly, “Nadezhda” accuses the ICC of an unfair competition of victory at the auction using an administrative resource. It was as if officials of the Department of Education of the Vladivostok City Hall accepted documents (submitted by the ICD), who did not meet the requirements of the competitive documentation, and also assigned the ICK more points than that the company could count on an honest assessment.
Earlier, the company won the auction in the organization of free meals in Saransk and Krasnoyarsk. The execution of agreements turned out to be scandals, during which the company also tried to attribute the use of an administrative resource.
The ICC in the Krasnoyarsk Territory has two branches, led by Tatyana Viktorovna Bogomolova, in the girlishness of Mikhalskaya. According to local information Mediathis is the sister of Elena Viktorovna Mikhalskaya, who works as deputy director of the directorate for the organization of school nutrition of the administration of Krasnoyarsk. Those. Sister of one of the managers of the customer of the tender.
The total amount of agreements by the ICK in Krasnoyarsk amounted to about 1 billion rubles. The competitor of the MKK, Krasnoyarsk LLC Kraspit, who won two lots – in the Kirovsky and Sverdlovsk regions, complained about the results of the auction of 2023. The OFAS did not find violations in the conduct of competitive procedures.
The ICC lots won little. In the summer of 2023, the company filed seven lawsuits against the city hall, trying to challenge the played lots for 670 million rubles. The company considered that officials established overstated requirements for employees of the contractor, violated the principle of openness of purchases, illegally established the requirement for the minimum cost of contracts and limited the terms for the popularization of a healthy diet.

As follows from the court documents, among other things, the ICC tried to ban most schools in Krasnoyarsk to sign an agreement on the results of the procurement. This company was refused from Saransk. In the interim measures in the claims of the ICC against the City Hall, the court also refused. The court sessions are still ongoing. The next meeting will be held on September 30.

From the foregoing, it can be concluded that the ICD acted extremely browned and brazenly: even having an agreement for hundreds of million rubles in hand, she tried to pick up other lots and could jeopardize children with nutrition (if interim measures under contracts, it would be impossible for schoolchildren to deliver it).
Immediately after the start of the school year, in schools serving the ICD, problems with the personnel and the delivery of products began. In October 2023, the Investigative Committee excited The criminal case on the negligence of the “unidentified officials of the city administration” – violations were identified in 77 schools in Krasnoyarsk, which was served by the “Interregional Catering Company”.
ICC problems were in Mordovia. In 2021, the company and LLC Spartak were found guilty of cartel conspiracy in the social education market of the republic. During the verification among the evidence, the FAS officers discovered a large number of correspondence, the facts of filing identical applications from the same IP addresses, and the lack of reduction in the prices of the auction. In addition, the actual management of market participants was carried out by employees of MKK LLC, and Spartak LLC received financing on their part by a large number of loan agreements.

Spartak LLC is now present in the market. The owner and general director – Evgeny Kubasov, the amount of state contracts about 70 million rubles.
Who is behind the ICK
LLC “MKK” is registered in Saransk in 2011. General Director and end beneficiary Timothy Fions. 70% of the LLC belongs to Lyudmila Chernigova, 30% of a relative of Timofey Antonina Fionova. The company has state contracts for 1.5 billion rubles. The largest customer is the GBOU RM “Republican Lyceum”.
Antonina Fiononov has no other businesses. In addition to MKK, Chernigova acted as the founder of another eight legal entities. Most are associated with a business that is not related to nutrition.
Timofey Fionov – Executive Director The industry union of social nutrition (“Soyuzsotspit”) – a non -profit organization of unifying manufacturers of the corresponding products.
Industry unions Closely interact with the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation. Earlier, their creation was lobbied by the current Minister of Agriculture Oksana Lut (then in the rank of deputy minister) and Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev (then – Minister).

As claimed NetworkThe companies allegedly included in them are forced to pay membership fees, in return to which they allegedly receive state support. The same may be a prerequisite for the receipt of loans to the state Rosselkhozbank. Earlier, Dmitry Patrushev and Oksana Lut held the positions of reproduction and deputy reproach of the RSHB, respectively.
Those. Finding in the industry union guarantees assistance from the state and may be a kind of filter for the manufacturers loyal to the leadership of the Ministry of Agriculture.
ICK not just enters the Union, his beneficiary is his executive leader. Which, in fact, should communicate with officials of the Ministry of Justice.
Recently Timothy Fions declaredWhich has been conducting dense work on reforming school meals for a year and a half. Apparently, he could have in mind, among other things, receiving contracts for hundreds of million rubles by his own company. It is logical to assume that this could contribute to his position in Soyuzsotskite, which could mean proximity to the leaders of the federal Ministry of Agriculture. And from there to contracts not far.
As already mentioned, the head of Mordovia Artyom Zdunov heads a working group for school nutrition in the State Council. The group works out the possibility of building a modern power supply system based on a network of production and logistics centers and power plants. As Zdunov stated, this approach is already successfully used in Mordovia.
In practice, we see MKK from Mordovia related to cartel conspiracies and court scandals. It turns out that it is this experience that Mordovian authorities transfer to the regions-as Mr. Zdunov promised.
