Gedera, Israel
September 18, 2005
In light of the recent press
releases regarding its acquisition, Zeraim Gedera wishes to send
the following message to its customers, suppliers and business
partners worldwide:
Zeraim Gedera has
been active in fund-raising with a view to exploit its present
excellent situation and potential for speedy growth. This
process turned out to become a sale of part of the Company’s
shares.
As a result of a dispute between
two potential buyers, an Israeli fund called
Markstone
and European Sakata
Holding, the issue was brought in front of the Israeli
Courts, which should inform this week (Week 38) when the hearing
will take place. To date, Zeraim Gedera did not change its
ownership.
Zeraim Gedera hopes that this process will be quick, is fully
committed to the agreements it has with all its customers,
suppliers and business partners, and will continue serving
farmers worldwide with the best varieties and professional
service.
