Gazprombank managed to recover 4.6 billion rubles from the courts of Fullainvest, Nikta and Irma, which acted as guarantors for the loans of the Tsentrobuv retail chain.

Until 2016, these companies were the "daughters" of Centro LLC. In addition to Gazprombank, Sberbank, Moscow Credit Bank and Baledge Ltd. of Cyprus are also claiming Centro assets. Their aggregate amount of claims is 7.7 billion rubles.

As follows from the court materials, in September 2013, Centro took in a loan from Gazprombank with a limit of 8.6 billion rubles for current operations and refinancing loans to other banks. But from February 2016 the company stopped servicing debts, and in December the court found her bankrupt. At the time of bankruptcy, the amount of claims of the company's creditors was 19.2 billion rubles, writes Kommersant.

As the Internet portal "Kuban 24", the head of the group of companies selling shoes and clothes wrote in September of 2016, they were declared in the federal wanted list for debts on the loan. According to a source in law enforcement agencies, he is one of the major shareholders of the firm "TsentrObuv" Sergei Lomakin.
