Bottling plant Jako wants to buy Ostrow brewery from Kompania Piwowarska

Kokanin-based bottling plant Jako intends to buy Browary Ostrow Wielkopolski. The plant belongs to Poznan-based Kompania Piwowarska the owner of Lech BW and Browary Tyskie. The decision to sell the Ostrow-based plant was made at the general shareholders meeting of Kompania. The transaction will cost zl. 20 million, however Jako deems that price to be too high. "It is too early to comment on the price. I can confirm though that there are other companies as well that are interested in purchasing Ostrow," said Kompania Piwowarska president Pawel Sudol. Jako receives around 60-70% of Ostrow's production. (Puls Biznesu, page 5)
