Churin and Qiulin

Churin & Co. (SSE: 600891 [delisted]) is the largest department store in Harbin, the capital of Heilongjiang Province, China.

The two descendants have been in conflict since 2011, when Churin Group expelled Qiulin Lidaosi products from its stores and formed its own food manufactory.

[2][3] Qiulin Group's history goes back to 1867, when Ivan Yakovlevich Churin (October 16, 1833 – April 30, 1895), a Russian who was born in Irkutsk, opened a store in Nikolayevsk-on-Amur.

In 1882, he established Churin & Co. (Russian: Чурин и Ко) in Khabarovsk, with his business partners Касьяновы, Бабинцевы, Писаревы, and Мамонтовы.

Around the same time, Churin Group came under investigation due to mismanagement, culminating in the termination of its SHSE ticker on March 26, 2021, for continued losses.
