“…It also shows that strategic management in the Russian food industry and agriculture is significantly more diverse than is commonly presumed [47][48][49]. Moreover, the mission statements of the cheese-producing organizations provide important information about the peculiarities of doing business in Russia (see also the general notes in [50,51]) and about the current advance in the Russian economy and its specific branches. Two important opportunities for further research (in addition to extended mission research-see above) are the realization of a better correspondence between the strategic statements and real performance of the organizations, and the analysis of the perception of these statements by business partners, competitors, customers, and rural communities.…”

Russia is one of the largest cheese producers in the world, which requires the well-balanced strategic management of all organizations involved. The content of ten mission statements of Russian cheese producers is analyzed by means of identification of the principal components according to the 'standard' Pearce-David scheme. The analysis shows that the statements tend to deal with a variety of aspects, include, on average, 3.5 components; the most common components are philosophy (higher tasks of business) and product. These strategic declarations should be judged as modern and reflecting the strength of the Russian food industry and agriculture. Although it might be expected that the mission statements of Russian cheese producers should refer to rural communities, particularly since some of the enterprises are located in nationally important areas of milk agriculture, this expectation is only partly correct. The statements often deal with environmental issues, but ignore local social aspects. Cheese production opens perspectives for joint eco-and rural tourism development, which requires that cheese be considered as a kind of heritage. This is not the case in the mission statements under study, however, even though ideas about heritage value are implicitly present. The outcomes of the present study may have practical implications for Russian cheese producers, and emphasize the need for strategic management studies concerning cheese-producing organizations.

“…Within this framework, small and medium businesses perform social functions but also have a positive impact on economic growth [3]. It fulfills not only an economic function but also an important social function, contributing to the formation of a middle class and self-employment [11]. Entrepreneurship in developing countries and regions is often seen as a tool for poverty reduction and inclusive economic growth [4].…”

Small and medium businesses play a significant role in social and economic development. There are several mechanisms of such influence. Modern economic growth is impossible without the renewal of corporate forms, technologies, business practices, and the elimination of inflexible and obsolete ones. The creation of barriers to "creative destruction" may reduce social risks, but it also reduces the economy's growth rate in the future. Entrepreneurship is considered as one of the commercialization mechanisms of scientific research and development. And regions with high scientific research and development potential may have a low level of economic development due to poor entrepreneurship development and low density of startups. In other words, this refers to entrepreneurial capital concentrated in a country or region. In a large investment project execution, the return on investment will be higher in the region where the density of SMEs is higher. Small businesses provide additional services and related products. In addition, small businesses often exempt large enterprises from incidental functions, which allows them to improve their efficiency through outsourcing. The study's purpose was to form a range of proposals to reduce the negative consequences and opportunities associated with the Covid-19 pandemic consequences for business. The research identifies the risks, opportunities, and analyzed measures to support business and employment, implemented by regional executive authorities of all subjects of the Russian Federation in response to the limitations and challenges posed by the spread of new Covid-19 infection.

The article examines the mutual influence of the country's image and its trading activities in foreign markets. Territorial products are in high demand in other countries and connected in the minds of consumers with the country of production. The authors focus their attention on Central Asia as a region with an actively developing economy and essential for Russia in building the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). There is also a high interest in this region from other countries – the USA, China, Turkey, South Korea, Japan. The article analyzes whether Russian metallurgical products can be considered a territorial product that increases the country's attractiveness as a whole in the market of Central Asian countries. The study aims to compare consumers' attitudes to Russian and Chinese metal products, as Chinese metal producers are currently becoming more active in the market of Central Asian countries. The study employs two methods: an expert interview and a survey of consumers of metallurgical products.The authors conclude that Russian metallurgical products have a stable positive reputation in the market of Central Asian countries. Its reputation in the minds of consumers is associated not only with the price and quality of the product itself but also with a high level of metallurgical education and research and production activities in Russia. In addition, it is essential for consumers that product information is presented in a familiar language, and the cultural features of business communication of Russian suppliers are close and understandable to them. In turn, Chinese metallurgical products do not have such a reputation since Central Asian consumers do not have experience in its utilization, are not aware of the history of metallurgical production in China, scientific and technical developments, and the quality of professional education in the field of metallurgy in this country. They also do not understand China's language and business culture; they are not familiar enough with Chinese suppliers, which affects their choice in favor of a Russian supplier. On this basis, the authors conclude that Russian metallurgical products can be considered a territorial product in the market of Central Asian countries.
