NMC Health set to sell trading unit to different parties | ZAWYA MENA Edition:
NMC Healthcare has received bids to sell its distribution unit and will soon be selling it to different parties, sources said.
The company, which recently laid off hundreds of workers, is offloading stake in the subsidiary as it is considered non-core and requires substantially high working capital to run the operations. In addition, this stake sale will help the company pay off some of its debt
"There are parties who have strong interest in the distribution business. NMC will be offloading the unit soon and that also to different parties," a source said.
"The company is in the process of exploring options for NMC Trading, the group's distribution business, which it has determined to be non-core and requiring substantial levels of working capital. The process should not materially adversely impact distributors' activities, nor NMC Trading's customers," an NMC Healthcare spokeswoman said.
