Prime Minister Viktor Orbán signed the decree.

On Friday at 11 a.m., the stock company Kartonpack Dobozipari Nyrt. In Debrecen it was under state supervision. Instead of the owners and managers of the business, a government commissioner can decide everything.

We wrote about the lucrative business formed from a former small-scale cooperative when it turned out that its president was a person who was banned from running the company due to the Kulcsár affair, and then there were serious fights within the company.

What now made it necessary for the state to take over the box factory is unclear in the government decree published in the Hungarian Gazette on Friday morning, we asked the Prime Minister and operating personnel, and if they respond, we will update Article. The company writes on its website that it is a key partner in the pharmaceutical industry, probably because it has been placed under state supervision.

The government commissioner responsible for coordinating government tasks related to the exercise of property rights, ie Edit Juhász, secretary of state in the Prime Minister’s Office, can make any decision “to maintain the viability of the company and lead to effectively carry out state oversight. ” You can replace all managers, report, terminate all company contracts, inspect everything, and do everything that would otherwise be the responsibility of the board or general meeting.

This is the first time that the government has made that decision based on a mandate received in an emergency.

In 2019, the company made a fairly modest after-tax profit of 8 million HUF, with an income of almost 2.5 billion HUF, which is a significant drop compared to the profit of 100 million HUF a year ago. The difference is mainly due to the short term, including trade accounts payable, which increased by almost 90 million HUF in a year, but the company’s material expenses also increased by almost 300 million HUF. It is also interesting that in 20089 he liquidated around 70 million HUF of his lease debt, but he still has a debt of almost 80 million HUF.
