Sources in the drug industry told ZF that the majority shareholder of the drugstore chain is holding negotiations to sell the company. The negotiations partner is said to be UK giant Alliance Boots, which has been testing the Romanian market for several years.

“I know nothing about this (about discussions on selling Dona – e.n.). Talks with the majority shareholder (Eugen Banciu – e.n.) revealed no such intention,” said Wencz.
