Maspex deal promises Multi Vita capital boost and improved distribution

Bottled water company Multi Vita is to receive a financial boost from Wadowice-based fruit juice producer Maspex. Under a deal that will eventually lead to Maspex acquiring 50% of the company from current owner Multico, Multi Vita's capital will be increased from zl.45 million to zl.60 million. Multico owner Zbigniew Jakubas declined to reveal how much Maspex would pay for the stake, but insisted that his new partner had the means to improve Multi Vita's sales and distribution system, and would help to bring about a dramatic increase in turnover.
