According to Egyptian media Midea Group is considering the acquisition of Zanussi brand from Electrolux Group . The acquisition deal is expected to be finalized by the fourth quarter of 2023.
In July, the Swedish giant had appointed Societè Generale to handle the sale of the Zanussi, Ideal, Faure, Zanker, Rosenlew, Elektro-Helios, Zoppas, Olympic Electric and Kwikot brands and activities in Africa and the Middle East.
Electrolux’s activities in Egypt became relevant in 2011 with the acquisition of Egyptian Olympic Group, the largest white goods manufacturer based in the Middle East. Electrolux employs 2,238 people in Egypt.
98% of the total electricity used in Electrolux Group manufacturer operations came from renewable sources. While a small proportion of non-renewable electricity is still sourced, Electrolux Group is proactively working to achieve 100% renewable electricity globally by 2025.
Electricity accounts for 60% of Electrolux Group’s total energy use and is a key component of the company’s journey to eliminate the use of fossil fuels in its operations by 2030 and across the entire value chain by 2050. This percentage will grow in the coming years as Electrolux Group operations are increasingly electrified.
Electrolux Group now has sites with solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in Italy, Thailand, Australia, Mexico, China, South Africa and Sweden. In 2022, these systems avoided greenhouse gas emissions of around 5,000 CO2e by producing around 10 GWh of electricity
