Ameropa Grains to sell key silos in Romania's Călărași and Constanța
<p>Ameropa Grains, Romania’s largest grain trader with an annual turnover exceeding RON 8 billion (EUR 1.6 billion), has listed silos in Călărași and Constanța for sale, including strategic facilities with access to the Black Sea.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Swiss-based Ameropa Group, led by billionaire Andreas Zivy, declined to comment on the sale. A source familiar with the decision explained: “Ameropa has re-evaluated its need for certain silos and found them unnecessary under its current strategy. The assets were once viable, particularly during Comcereal Constanța’s era, but they are no longer economically sustainable.”</p>

<p>Ameropa entered the Romanian market in 2008, acquiring Comcereal Constanța for EUR 20 million. Over time, the company has built a regional agricultural powerhouse, operating six subsidiaries in Romania with combined revenues surpassing EUR 2.5 billion.</p>

<p>The silos up for sale include the Palas silo and facilities in berth 54, which provide access to the Black Sea. Ameropa’s comparative analysis of operational costs and revenues determined these assets to be unprofitable.</p>
