Lush stores in Russia to stay open amid Ukraine crisis - but supplies suspended

Cosmetics retailer Lush has said its shops in Russia will remain open but it is suspending supplies and online sales to the country amid the Ukraine crisis.

According to the Dorset business, its 48 Russian stores cannot be shut because they are run by a Russian licensee under the legal agreement. Meanwhile, its 15 shops in Ukraine are currently closed amid the ongoing war.

The Poole-headquartered company said it was also in the process of acquiring the Lush Ukraine shares not currently held by the group in order to "secure the business".
