Construction of processing factory commences

 

Fox Marble, the AIM quoted Company focused on marble quarrying extraction and production in Kosovo and the Balkans region, is pleased to announce the acquisition of a double skinned steel factory which is now being erected at the Company's factory site in Kosovo. Today also marks the Company's final results announcement for the period ended 31 December 2013.

 

It was announced in the first half of the year that the Company had started to prepare the 10 hectare site in Lipjan, just outside of Pristina in Kosovo on which to build a processing factory. The Company has purchased a double skinned steel factory building from a site in Greece, which has been shipped to Kosovo to be erected and construction should be completed by the end of Q2 of this financial year.

 

The construction includes the laying of the concrete floor on which the specialist marble processing equipment will be sited. With respect to this, Fox Marble has started to acquire the necessary equipment needed to process the marble, including three Barsanti gang saws.

 

During the construction period and until the processing factory is operational, the Company will maintain and extend the third party production facilities it has secured in Carrara, Italy in order to fulfill orders of cut and polished marble slabs.

 

Commenting on today's update, Chris Gilbert, Chief Executive of Fox Marble, said: "It has always been the intention of the Company to build a processing site and bring this part of the process in-house. We are pleased to be reporting the progress we have made and most importantly, we acquired this factory at a significant discount to market value and well within our budget set aside for this development. We look forward to updating shareholders with the progress of the site."
