Metro had announced last year want to part with the troubled supermarket chain. On Wednesday night, the company announced that it had entered exclusive sales negotiations with a consortium to redo. According to dpa's information, this includes the mall operator ECE, which belongs to the Otto group, and Morgan Stanley Bank. Negotiations should therefore be completed in the summer.
Redos introduced "the most compelling concept for real realignment," Koch said. At the same time, he announced that Metro would remain a minority shareholder for three years in the company and bring its expertise in the retail sector.
However, Koch did not give details on the future of Real. It is impossible to say today how many real markets there will be in five years. "But the number will change," admitted the manager. "This will come to the samples, which is also economically reasonable."
Informed circles have even said that most stores could be sold to competitors such as Edeka, Rewe, Globus or Kaufland. Many of them had expressed interest in acquiring part of the Real store network in recent months.
