Bidding, at which the plant was sold, took place for the second time. Initially, the object was estimated at ₽2,7 billion, but due to the lack of applications, the starting price decreased several times. It is noted that the object was sold by ₽786,3 million more than the minimum set price, which indicates high interest from potential buyers.

Metrostroy of the Northern Capital, which is the new general contractor for the construction of the metro in St. Petersburg, has already used the acquired site since 2023. Now the plant, located on Novo-Nikitinskaya Street, will become part of the company's production base, which will strengthen its position in the construction and production of building materials in the region.

Olga Zheludkova, Deputy General Director of the RAD, noted that the sale of the reinforced concrete products plant is the fifth successful transaction carried out as part of the bankruptcy procedure. She stressed that assets are sold with good financial results, despite the difficult market conditions.

The acquisition will allow the company to continue large-scale projects for the construction and modernization of the transport infrastructure of St. Petersburg, as well as increase the level of localization of the production of materials necessary for this purpose.^[1]
