Treasury preparing tender for purchase of Dalmor's fishing fleet and land

In the next two weeks the Treasury Ministry will issue invitations to the tender for purchase of 10% to 80% of one of the nation's largest fishing companies, Dalmor. According to Magda Nienaltowska from the Ministry press office, several investors have alreadyexpressed a desire to participate in the deal, but she would not disclose the names of the bidders. The company will be sold as a single unit, so the investor will acquire not only the attractive real estate belonging to Dalmor, but also its fleet of eight rusted deep-sea fishing ships. Moreover, the actual buyer will be obligated to increase the company's capital and continue fishing. Industry sources claim the investor for Dalmor should be sought among Malta-based Capital Nominee Services (owner of 99% of Dalmor Fishing); Independent Fishers Limited from New Zealand; and German Euro Frigo Lebensmittelhandelgesellshaft. In case the deal is not concluded, the company has a privatization ⌠plan B■ under which the ailing fleet and real estate would be sold separately. (Puls Biznesu, p.5) J.K.
