Bankrupt 'Paupio virtuvė' lays off all employees

The Lithuanian company Paupio virtuvė has terminated employment for all its staff as it navigates bankruptcy proceedings. The company officially notified the Employment Service about the layoffs, which affect employees across management, administration, and catering services. Cooks and project managers constitute the largest group of those who have lost their jobs.

The Vilnius Regional Court's decision to declare Paupio virtuvė bankrupt came into effect in July of this year. Financial records indicate significant debt, with the company owing over 31,000 euros to Sodra, the state social insurance fund, and approximately 30,000 euros to the State Tax Inspectorate (VMI).

Financial reports reveal a consistent pattern of losses for the company. In 2025, Paupio virtuvė incurred a deficit of 52,500 euros. This followed a loss of 59,200 euros in the preceding year. The company's financial struggles ultimately led to the decision to cease operations and lay off its entire workforce.
