Deutsche Lufthansa AG (XTRA:LHA) plans to sell its 49% stake in Aeromar, Russia's largest food production company for airline passengers, German television channel ZDF reported on September 28, 2022. ZDF earlier published a report saying that a subsidiary of Lufthansa was the owner of 49% in Aeromar for many years, and it remained the company's shareholder even in 2014 when Aeromar opened a representative office in Crimea. The owner of 51% in Aeromar is Russian national flagship carrier Aeroflot.

Lufthansa said previously that it was only a minority shareholder of Aeromar, which was not under the E.U. sanctions. But several hours after the report's release, a representative of the company contacted the television channel and said that Lufthansa AG planned to sell its stake in Aeromar, ZDF reported.
