The Oggi trademark belongs to the Russian company Alliance Vintegra, founded in March 2005. The organization develops, produces and sells alcoholic beverages and is one of the three largest market operators in the capital region. Among the partners of the company are large retail chains Auchan, Scarlet Sails and Avoska, and partners distribute Alliance Vintegra products in the regions.
The company does not have its own production sites, so Oggi liqueurs are produced by the Niva Pilot Plant, which is located in St. Petersburg. The company is not well known even in its own region, however, it has firmly occupied a part of the alcoholic beverage market for several decades. The plant was founded in 1991 and for a long time was part of the business empire of the ex-entrepreneur Alexander Sabadash. In 2002, the management at Niva completely changed, which decided to head for the production of niche alcohol.
By 2009, the enterprise occupied 70% of the domestic milk liqueur market. Technologists have been actively working on recipes based on the latest trends in the global spirits market. The company’s management has set a goal to offer consumers inexpensive drinks that are not inferior to imported ones in quality. During this period, technological lines were modernized and the production of new brands was launched. Dessert liqueurs and fruit vodkas appeared in the assortment of the company.
One of the important areas of the company’s work is the production of private labels, which include Oggi liqueur. The plant is equipped with a special nursery where spices are grown for the production of dessert alcohol, all natural ingredients are carefully and rigorously selected. Niva specialists have more than fifty unique recipes developed to order. The quality of products is controlled by our own laboratory.
