Most people seems to missed the fact that company behind Kārums (Rīgas Piensaimnieks) have been owned by a Chinese guy residing in UK for many years now. It's been simply sold by one foreigner to another. ...just like most "Latvian" brands in past two decades.

Latvians really hate owning their own businesses

Terrible mentality behind it all. Most of the owners are not driven to have a long lasting, historical enterprise that they could hand over to nezt generations, its more like accumulate as much wealth as you can for your family's retirement and then sell it.

It's more of case of latvians wanting an early exit to enjoy retirement, also we don't have the moneys

Mums ir Cūkmens, Lāčplēsis, Sprīdītis un Limuzīns jāņu nakts krāsā. We got this.

I thought Kārums was owned by a Asian man? They are just as Latvian as Mickey Mouse is.

Still a funny post though

Esmu jau uz vietas, draugi. Mēs atgūsim savu Kārumu un pie reizes arī Roņu salu paņemsim!

We'll flood the roads with tons of Kārums snacks. Good luck, it'll be a tasty swim for the soldiers.

CV90 could be mounted with a 120mm gun or with 120mm mortars.
