Trasmed bid for Euroferrys accepted
Date: 22 Mar 2006 00:00 Source: Lloyds ListSpanish ferry operator Euroferrys has accepted a takeover bid from rival operator Acciona Trasmediterranea. The companies are now awaiting approval on the deal from Spain's competition authority, a Trasmed spokesman told Fairplay today. Euroferrys chairman Joaquin Gonzalez was unavailable for comment but managing director Manuel Jiménez said yesterday the operator would maintain its corporate name and ships and maintain employment levels if the takeover bid is approved.
Euroferrys was set up in 1998, and runs ferry services from Algeciras to Tangiers and to Ceuta, the Spanish enclave in North Africa. Besides Acciona Trasmediterranea, Euroferrys competes wth Buquebus and Balearia, the Denia-based company that has threatened to speak out against the takeover at the hearing. Acciona Trasmediterranea would not say how much it offered for Euroferrys when the proposal went to the competition authority last Wednesday.
