Slovenia’s Tuš Embarks On Restructuring Programme

Slovenia’s Tuš Group has commenced a process of 'preventive restructuring', with the rescheduling of its financial liabilities until 2020.

The agreement, on the restructuring of the retail and real-estate group, was confirmed by a Slovenian court in May. With €380 million in outstanding loans, Tuš Group agreed with creditors in January the rescheduling of its financial obligations.

Between now and 2020, Tuš will have to divest €100 million of assets, focusing on its core retail activities, and repay an additional €30 million from operating profits.

Earlier this month, Tuš Group sold its Planet Tuš Koper shopping mall to South African real-estate fund Greenbay, although it will remain the largest tenant.

Celje-based Tuš has approximately 350 supermarkets and cash-and-carry stores in Slovenia, both owned and franchised.
