The Ukrainian confectionery company Roshen will be cleared to export candies and chocolates to the Russian market, Interfax was told at the Russian health and consumer rights watchdog Rospotrebnadzor.

Rospotrebnadzor on Tuesday received Ukrainian state consumer rights inspectors.

"Under the agreements reached, measures will be taken to bring the current standards into line with modern requirements and to guarantee laboratory control over each batch at accredited laboratories, which will help start the procedure of gradual resumption of Roshen products' deliveries to the Russian market," Rospotrebnadzor said.
