"Contrary to the news of the Russian daily press no existing franchise contract has been cancelled or annulled: Russia is and will remain one of the most important export markets for the Gerry Weber Group," it said in a statement on Wednesday.

However, it added that it has a general policy to refrain from doing business with customers with poor credit ratings who have no credit insurance or cannot pay upfront.
