In March, Bulgaria's financial regulator said it has temporarily banned a buyout offer by Bareck Overseas for the 405,652 shares in Drujba Glassworks.
In February, Drujba Glassworks said that Cyprus-based Bareck Overseas has launched a buyout bid for the stocks representing 0.76% of Drujba Glassworks' capital, proposing to pay 3.7 levs ($2/1.9 euro) per share.
In October 2016, Greek glassmaker Yioula agreed to sell its Bulgarian unit Drujba Glassworks to BA Vidro as part of a wider divestment plan that also includes the group's glass container business in Romania.
Drujba Glassworks has two glass container plants - in Sofia and Plovdiv.
