Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/25/2014 -- The main story over the research period is about Berta, but this time in a negative context. The company quit functioning as a result of financial difficulties it faced shortly after the political changes that took place in Georgia in October 2012. The opposition party won parliamentary elections and came to power. The changes had an impact on the business environment in that companies that had enjoyed some privileges under the previous government were deprived of all kinds of benefits and faced problems with Revenue Service after the election. Berta was one such local company which failed to overcome the hardship and had to stop its production process. However, the company's management stated that the shutdown was temporary and that it would reopen in a few months. Nevertheless, the closure strongly impacted the market as Berta was a significant competitor to international companies. The fact influenced unit prices as well and led to their increase.
