France Rail Industry : the recovery is entrusted to the british group Liberty

The industrial project of Liberty has been preferred to the offerings of the leader of ArcelorMittal steel, the indian group Jindal, the british Olympus Steel and the chinese Jingye.

The commercial chamber of the court of Strasbourg has entrusted this Thursday, the british group Liberty the recovery of France Rail Industry (FRI) at Hayange (Moselle), the leading provider in the rail on the SNCF. "The nominee is the group Liberty", announced to the AFP the court registry of the commercial court.

The british group, however, must obtain the agreement of the ministry of the Economy : the FRI is the leading provider of rails for the SNCF, an asset considered "strategic" by the French government and which, therefore, requires the green light from French authorities for his redemption.
