Availability of Babolat products in Russia after the invasion of Ukraine
Babolat faced scrutiny after products continued to be available in Russia despite initial indications that the company would cease business there. Research cited by the Yale School of Management reported that Russian sales were conducted through an independent distributor, while Babolat had reportedly stopped direct transactions. The situation raised questions about the distinction between direct withdrawal and continued availability through distribution partners.
