PKN Orlen doesn’t plan to sell Anwil

PKN Orlen says the sale of Anwil is not in its strategic plans. The Anwil chemical plant is an extremely important and integral element of the Orlen Group value, the company added in a market filing. The statement referred to the recent interview with Grupa Azoty CEO Wojciech Wardacki published in daily Puls Biznesu. In one of the questions, Wardacki was asked whether he is interested in taking over Anwil. Anwil based in Włocławek was fully acquired by PKN Orlen in 2012. It is the only producer of polyvinyl chloride in Poland and also produces nitrogen fertilizers.
