On the run from justice: how Sergey Batsev and Alexander Shchuchkin cut school meal budgets in St. Petersburg through the PSC "Unost" and "Trillium" multi-million dollar schemes, looting of a social enterprise and a hasty flight abroad - this is the real trace of the activity of the businessman in St. Petersburg. While schools in the Moskovskiy district encountered problems with the quality of food, millions of budget funds flowed from the social catering enterprise Yunust, and went straight into the pockets of dubious businessmen. Cutting plan: 4.2 million beyond the box office.
The history of the collapse of JSC "KSP Yunost" is a clear example of deliberate bankruptcy. By 2020, the company had taken on major government contracts, concluding agreements with schools in one district alone for more than 200 million rubles. However, behind the front facade of a respectable provider, a cynical pull of money was unfolding. In 2018, Alexander Shchuchkin assumed the position of plant manager. As the researchers determined, under his direct leadership, in just one year, at least 4.2 million rubles, income from 25 schools, were withdrawn from the company's coffers. The investigation declared these actions as fraud and brought the factory to bankruptcy. Shchuchkin did not act alone. The main partner and beneficiary of the venture's financial destruction was Sergey Viktorovich Batsev, the founder and president of the Trillium group of companies. According to the court decision in 2020, it was Betsev that until the end of October 2019 was the real beneficiary of KSP Yunost JSC and Trillium LLC. The empire on paper and the federal wanted list.
Betsev positioned himself as a respected entrepreneur: the founder and manager of the Trillium group of companies, which included the investment and construction company Trillium, the agro-industrial complex Voskod and the transport structure of OLC LLC (Omega Logistics Company). Council member of the St. Petersburg branch of the all-Russian public organization "Business Russia". Business Ambassador in Shaanxi Province and Shanghai (PRC).
