Gdansk Shipyard buyer to be revealed this month

Wiercinski said the two offers were made by a consortium consisting of the Gdynia Shipyard and Warsaw firm Evip Progress S.A, and Konsorcjum Przemyslu Okretowego, which includes the Gdansk Repair Shipyard and Szczecin Shipyard. Karol Guzikiewicz, deputy president of the shipyard's Solidarity union, claims the Gdansk Repair Shipyard would be the best buyer, as the shipyards cooperated in the past. Despite the union's choice, Wiercinski said: "Currently the most likely buyer is the consortium led by the Gdynia Shipyard." (Gazeta Wyborcza, page 16, Reuters)
