The Agency for the Recovery and Management of Assets initiated the process of transferring the seized assets of the IDS Ukraine group, which produces the mineral waters "Morshynska" and "Myrhorodska," Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko said.
This time the auction will put up for sale the corporate rights to all the main enterprises that provide the full production cycle — from water extraction to bottling and delivery. The group includes: Myrhorod Mineral Water Plant, Morshyn Mineral Water Plant "Oskar", Industrial and Distribution Systems, IDS Aqua Service, Potuzhnist, IVA and Nova.com.
Expected revenues to the state budget will amount to at least 24 million hryvnias per month.
IDS assets have been under seizure since 2022 because they belong to Russian businessman Mikhail Fridman, who is included on the sanctions lists of the U.S., the EU, the U.K. and Ukraine.
- In November 2022, a court transferred the corporate rights to IDS Ukraine and its enterprises to ARMA.
- In March 2023 a manager was appointed for two companies of the group — PJSC "Morshyn Mineral Water Plant 'Oskar'" and PJSC "IDS" (IDS Ukraine). It was planned that the manager would be LLC "Carpathian Mineral Waters", but the deal was not approved by the Antimonopoly Committee, and in 2025 it was terminated as unrealized.
