| Esther Koplowitz impelled FCC to purchase ASA Group In the course of an act celebrated in the Torre Picasso building, in Madrid, FCC has purchased the Austrian environmental services company ASA from the French electricity company EDF. EDF has been paid 224 million euros, FCC thus assuming 51 million euros of ASA's debt. ASA, based in Himberg, near Vienna, is a leading company in global waste management and disposal -including collection, transportation, treatment, dumps, classification and recycling - on behalf of municipal, commercial, industrial and private clients in the region. This operation fits into FCC's Strategic Plan as impelled by the company's main shareholder, Esther Koplowitz, President of the Strategic Committee. The plan pursues the aim of increasing the growth and profitability of FCC's strategic business areas, such as the services sector, through international investments. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
