Details of the sale of assets of the Danish company Carlsberg have become known.
The assets will be sold to VG Invest for 34 billion rubles.
The Reuters agency shared this information with reference to the relevant documents.
It is noted that the deal worth 320 million dollars, which is equivalent to 34 billion rubles, was approved by the Russian government. The deal also received approval from the Danish authorities.
The new controlling shareholder of Baltika Breweries will be a company owned by two employees of the brand who have been working here for a long time. They will occupy the positions of CEO and his deputy.
The transaction is expected to be fully completed within a few days.
The deal will also regulate the transfer of shares of Carlsberg Azerbaijan and Carlsberg Kazakhstan, previously owned by Baltika, to Carlsberg Group.
In order to make the deal possible, Vladimir Putin issued a decree on the withdrawal of shares from the temporary management of the Federal Property Management Agency, to which the rights were transferred in 2023.
