The acting head of Kirov's Department of Municipal Services may head the Catering Combine.

      Denis Pyrlog reported this on his Telegram channel. According to him, Dmitry Kuzmin is highly likely to head the municipal state institution "Food and Social Catering Combine," which is responsible for organizing meals for students in Kirov schools. There is no official confirmation of this information at the time of publication. Recall that the municipal state institution "Food and Social Catering Combine" has repeatedly attracted media attention. In spring 2025 the institution was put in charge of a former police colonel, which sparked heated discussion among staff and parents of schoolchildren. In the summer the institution was accused of ineffective management and of being pressured by city officials. In the autumn it emerged that the "Food and Social Catering Combine" had fallen into a difficult financial position: the institution owed large sums to contractors and suppliers.
