Over 300 Companies Have Withdrawn from Russia - But Some Remain: Here's is a List of Those Who Have Withdrawn and Those Who Remain
Yale School of Management ^ | 03/08/2022

Posted on 03/08/2022 9:45:02 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Since Putin's devastating invasion of Ukraine began, 300 companies have announced their withdrawal from Russia in protest.

Nevertheless, some western companies have continued to operate in Russia undeterred; we identify several dozen companies with particularly significant exposure to Russian markets. In the days since we initially published our list, many of the "remain" companies have responded to public backlash and decided to withdraw, and we are continuously revising our list to reflect these decisions as they are made.

The full, current list of companies that have curtailed operations in Russia as well as those that remain, as of March 8, can be seen below.

Download the list by clicking here.

The list is updated daily by Jeffrey Sonnenfeld and his research team at the Yale Chief Executive Leadership Institute. We are pleased that our list has been cited by The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, The Washington Post, Axios, CBS, CNBC, CNN, MSNBC, Fortune, Huffington Post, Meduza, NPR, BBC, and Investment Executive, among others, as the most authoritative and comprehensive record of the corporate exodus from Russia, but we always welcome additional tips and insights from our readers around the world.

This does nothing but hurt the average Russian.

When this is over I hope the Russian people remember who turned their back on them.

When Rush lost a sponsor because they feared backlash he never took them back.

This is an opportunity for Russians to start their own businesses.

I don’t like cancel culture either.

I’m sure some of these businesses will pull out soon. It’s a
big deal to do something like this.

As a rule, I don’t like for people hang on in situations like
this though.

Sooner or later people are going to have to come to the
realization that Russia is not our friend.

I wish it weren’t so, but it is.

Bread, potatoes, greens, meat & heat and most Russians would be getting what they usually hope to get.

Typical Russians don’t live to fill up the SUVs they don’t have.

The Russian rich still have their dachas.

The oligarchs still have their natural resource assets. London and NYC aren’t what they used to be. Will miss mansions there a bit.

The Right has not organized to play hardball against these
Leftist squads who do so much damage.

Everyone from welfare recipients, to union members, to
party members, to media contacts, to...

The Left puts out the word, and that same day everyone knows
who to call to complain...

We don’t do anything. They’re walking on us.

I’m in Oregon where the State controls all hard alcohol sales.

They yanked all Russian vodka today or yesterday, and State & local Democrats/Wokecrats are planning protests in Portland with their Ukrainian flags sometime this week.

“Buckle up” the stupidity is just getting started.

That would be a MAJOR STEP to involving the West in this civil war.

Lot of personal service/product companies closing shop temporarily or perhaps forever.

Looks like a hell of an opportunity for some entrepreneurial folks to get a piece of the pie in Russia.

Start a reasonably good coffee shop next to a closed Starbucks!

AND NOW EVERY AMERICAN/WESTERN COMPANY SHOULD GET THE HELL OUT OF CHINA!!!!

The list is much larger than meets the eye ...
Example, Pepsico owns over 20 brands.

Yep. I question anything that Demonrats and their corporate flying monkeys support.
Their first RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA campaign was a complete hoax, so their only alternative was to goad Russia into aggression. Schwab and Soros are clinking their Waterford stemware.

Kinda like 8th grade girls - nobody likes her cause she isn’t popular. LOL We are witnessing the entire country of Russia being cancelled.

This war is like watching a bad divorce. I choose to watch it from afar and not get involved.
