After Campari, Coca Cola also escapes from Sesto San Giovanni to migrate to Milan. More bad news for the former city of factories which continues to lose pieces without the right-wing council striking a blow, nor the Northern League mayor Roberto Di Stefano, very active on social media to launch the candidacy of the former Silvia Sardone, reacting in in some way to the escape of large industrial groups from the city.
A city that has recently also lost the state university headquarters, which also moved to the capital, as was also the case for Campari and which still sees through binoculars the creation of the City of Research and Health in the areas of the former Falck. A mega-project from which, institutions at all levels say, there is no turning back but which is still on the high seas, given that part of the land has not been reclaimed.
The judgment of former mayor Giorgio Oldrini was disconsolate and pointed after the city’s latest defeat. “Escape from Sesto San Giovanni, it’s now an exodus – he writes on social media – Prima Geas basketball which cannot find the possibility of building its own arena and has to emigrate. Then the State University which moves to Milan from our Piazza Montanelli. It had arrived in Sesto with an integrated plan wanted by Filippo Penati and inaugurated by me. Then Campari announces that she will move to Milan. She had arrived with an agreement stipulated when I was mayor. Today the news is that Coca Cola is moving to Renzo Piano’s building in Milan. I say it and record it with pain, because I love Sesto and, regardless of who governs it, it is my city. But what amazes me is the silence of the mayor and council. Misunderstandings with Geas, meeting with the State University months after the announcement of the departure, no contact with Campari and, I believe, with Coca Cola. As if this exodus didn’t interest this Administration. What a pity”.
