Sales

[edit]

Romanov is one of the cheapest vodkas available in India, and thus it is popular in low-cost clubs and with college students. Along with White Mischief, Romanov controls 70% of India's domestic market for vodka,[6] which increased to 89% in 2010.[4] From 2008 to 2017, sales of Romanov's unflavoured vodkas decreased by more than 50%, while flavoured vodka sales increased more than tenfold.[7]
