As a symbol, the information was communicated by the Ministry of the Economy in the early evening. Faced with serious difficulties, the Perenchinese company Demeyere finally obtained the state guaranteed loan (PGE) of thirty million euros that she had been asking for since mid-May. The horizon is clearing up a little for the thousand employees of the group.
State guaranteed loan
Have the initiatives of Xavier Bertrand, the President of the Region, for several days in favor of the Demeyere group, paid off? The fact remains that the good news was announced by Bercy. The banking pool who balked a few hours ago ended up granting the state guaranteed loan thirty million euros (90% guaranteed by the State) that the Meubles Demeyere group has been asking for for a month and a half.
Tuesday morning, nearly two hundred employees, some of whom came from the Charente site of the company specializing in kit furniture, had expressed their concerns, and their anger, in front of Lille branches of the banks constituting the pool.
For the first time since the start of negotiations with the banks, Christian John, the deputy director of Demeyere, had publicly expressed his incomprehension in the face of the non-position taken by the banking pool. ” The company is perfectly salvageable and eligible for the EMP, these are objective criteria, and there we have no rational explanations “Declared Tuesday the transition manager of the Perenchinese company.
With the obtaining of this loan, the threat of a receivership disappears for Demeyere Furniture and its thousand employees.
