Russians rated “Bjni”
The show "Kontrolnaya Zakupka" hosted by Anton Privolnov on the First Russian Channel had a separate section for the "Bjni" mineral water.
"Bjni" was among the top three drinks that made it to the finals for laboratory examination to find out the accuracy of the ingredients on the label. It turned out that "Bjni" has many microelements and it was acknowledged the winner.
The show stroke the eye in that it is nearly impossible to find "Bjni" mineral water in the Armenian market today. It has disappeared from the market when the Sukiasyan family started facing persecutions for supporting Levon Ter-Petrosyan during the 2008 presidential elections. After tax inspections, the "Bjni" mineral water factory shut down and was put up for auction. The factory was purchased by Deputy Ruben Hayrapetyan, but the bid was recognized invalid after a short while. The trial is still in progress and the factory remains closed.
"A1+" found out from sources that the last packs of "Bjni" are being sold in Russian markets, yet there are no available products anymore.
