Liniya is a cash and carry type hypermarket chain that Grinn Corporation owns. As of 2007, according to the Kommersant newspaper, it ranked 21st among Russia's Top 50 Biggest Store/Cash & Carry Chains.[2]

History

On December 6, 2002, the chain's first store opened in Kursk. This chain currently owns 27 stores (excluding stores in MegaGrinn shopping mall centers) in 10 Russian oblasts.[3]

In 2019, the media reported that allegedly 99.9% owned by JSC Corporation "Grinn" was pledged in favor of LLC "Strategy", which is managed by the relatives of one of the co-owners of the holding "Adamant".[4] Nikolai Greshilov denied this information. Before this, information appeared that the Bryansk territory "Liniya" stores would be sold, as the company was allegedly preparing for bankruptcy.
