Dan Murphy's to pull Russian vodka from its shelves
Russian-made alcohol will be taken off shelves in liquor retailers across Australia in a show of solidarity for Australia.
The Endeavour Group, the company which owns Dan Murphy's, BWS and Jimmy Brings, will remove all products with a Russian origin in the coming days.
Endeavour Group said it had made the decision to remove alcohol from Russia across its retail, hotel and online businesses in response to Moscow's invasion of Ukraine and lobbying from members of the Ukrainian community.
