Now it is not just a local manufacturer of children's clothing, but a real international fashion brand with its own unique history and recognisable DNA. Since the first day of opening, I have heard from customers more than once that Choupette is the most beautiful store in the city, so the new flagship store is my pride! I thank the founders of the company for the fact that there is such a unique brand in the Russian market. For me, being a representative of Choupette in Vladivostok is not only a profitable business, but also a great honor.”

Representatives of the largest Russian and foreign companies take part in the International Export Forum. This year the total number of foreign participants was five times higher than last year.
On September 27, the first day of the Congress of the Children's Goods Industry was held in Moscow. The main event of the forum was the meeting "Children's goods industry: components of technological sovereignty", where the chairmen discussed the problems of development and support of enterprises producing goods for children. Government representatives and manufacturers acted as speakers.
Anastasia Vasilkova, Development Director of TM Choupette made a proposal to expand the preferential VAT for children's products.
"Now children, graduating from high school, grow up to 180 cm," says A. Vasilkova. - But clothes of this height are sewn according to an adult pattern, and preferential VAT does not work here. It would be good to have preferential VAT for such sizes of children's clothing. Now, because of these discrepancies, we produce clothes only for children under 12 years old."
Also, the development director of TM Choupette noted that the children's goods industry is supported by the state through many channels, but in order for advertising to reach the target audience – children – it is necessary to add a new tool – digital promotion.
