VERBIO SUBSIDIARY MÄRKA GMBH SUCCESSFULLY CONTINUES TO SELL ITS LOCATIONS
Zörbig/Leipzig, 24 July 2013 - Märka GmbH has sold off three additional
locations (two seed facilities and a grain storage facility in Angermünde
and Jüterbog) to two subsidiaries of Getreide AG. The Riesa, Genthin and
Tucheim locations were sold to two agricultural traders last week. In
addition to acquiring land, real estate and assets, the purchasers are
going to take over all the 27 people employed at the sites concerned. Sale
proceeds are in the single-digit million euro range. The transaction with
Getreide AG is subject to the approval of the German Federal Cartel Office.
In June of this year, twelve locations were already sold.
Claus Sauter, CEO of VERBIO AG commented, 'The quick and successful
continuation of Märka's selling activity is showing once again that the
locations are attractive investment opportunities. Even during the harvest,
we will continue our discussions with interested parties for the remaining
locations.'
