E.ON Bulgaria donates a snow plough to the city of Varna
Since signing the privatization contract on 28.10.2004 and acquiring
59% of EDC Varna and EDC Gorna Oriahovitsa respectively, E.ON
Energie has been active in Bulgaria for more than a year. Since January
2005 the business activities of the EDCs have been managed
by the newly founded local company E.ON Bulgaria, which is headquartered
in Varna and to which the shares of EDC Varna and EDC
Gorna Oriahovitsa were transferred.
"Almost a year after the company foundation, E.ON Bulgaria, as a
Bulgarian firm, sees itself as an entity deeply rooted in the country,
which from Varna manages all activities in its distribution region -
North eastern Bulgaria" says Mr. Paasch, Chairman of the Management
Board of E.ON Bulgaria.
E.ON Bulgaria and its commitment in Bulgaria are meanwhile an integral
part of the E.ON Energie group, which was also the reason
why the group conference of E.ON Energie with a total of 1000 managers
of E.ON companies in Germany and Central Europe took place
in Varna.
"I would like to express my gratitude to the mayor, Mr. Yordanov, for
the hospitality of Varna," emphasizes Mr. Paasch, "the hospitality we
encountered was overwhelming and was perceived very positively by
all participants."
As a gesture of gratitude for the good co-operation and support with
the organization of the meeting, E.ON Bulgaria would like to thank
the city of Varna by making a present. The experiences from the cold
and snowy winter suggested the choice of present – a snow plough,
which Mr. Paasch will donate today to the mayor of Varna, Mr. Yordanov.
"We feel particularly connected to the location of our headquarters –
Varna – and, in future, we would like to co-operate even more closely
in terms of a "Public Private Partnership", points out Mr. Paasch.
