The construction company Kasyba, located in Vilnius, announced its bankruptcy on 7 May, 2009. The company employs 500 people and all will be dismissed by the end of this month. The main cause for bankruptcy was a sharp decrease in the number of orders due to a downfall in demand for real estate in Lithuania.
