Orlen CEO Ireneusz Fafara has expressed strong optimism regarding the imminent closure of a deal to purchase the Polimery Police plant. This plant is currently owned by chemicals company Grupa Azoty.
However, the potential sale faces a significant hurdle due to an ongoing legal dispute with a joint venture partner. Reports of this dispute caused shares in Grupa Azoty to drop as much as 5.2% on Thursday, although they later recovered some losses. Despite this legal challenge, Fafara remains confident that the acquisition can be successfully finalized.
