Liberty Galați Steel Plant Faces Uncertain Future Amid Sale Talks
Liberty Galați, a major steel plant owned by Sanjeev Gupta, is facing financial difficulties and has been placed under preventive insolvency arrangements. The plant, with debts totalling around EUR 1 billion, is currently in negotiations for a potential sale, with Romanian companies showing keen interest.
Last month, a restructuring plan for Liberty Galați was approved by creditors and the court. This plan aims to stabilise the plant's financial situation and ensure its continued operation. Among the potential buyers is Dorinel Umbrărescu, the owner of Romania's most powerful construction group. Umbrărescu is known for his business acumen and could potentially bring much-needed investment and expertise to the steel plant. The Romanian state is also involved, seeking to recover approximately EUR 500 million of the plant's debts.
While Dorinel Umbrărescu is the most prominent potential buyer, other Romanian companies are also in the running. The negotiations are ongoing, with the future of the plant and its employees hanging in the balance.
Liberty Galați's future is uncertain, with negotiations for its potential sale ongoing. Dorinel Umbrărescu's interest in the plant could signal a positive turn, but the final outcome remains to be seen. The Romanian state's involvement also raises questions about the plant's role in the country's industrial landscape.
