ALESSANDRIA – The Municipality of Alessandria intervenes on sad final page of the Centrale del latte di Alessandria e Asti. The administration explained how it “did everything possible and more” to save her. “Maybe too much in some ways – he added – chasing the dream of a company anchored to the territory and controlled by local partners which did not stand the test of facts. We read speculations once again in the name of vulgar controversy, which it is even difficult to define as “politics”, which forget what the Municipality has done to find adequate professionalism (the tender for the board of directors was deserted) and members interested in joining (sale of shares, these are also deserted) but which, above all, forget the decisions made unanimously on several occasions by the City Council and more generally by Alessandria politics, between 2016 and 2019, when it was decided, by modifying the decisions of the Madia Law, to maintain a local approach. These are the facts and they involve multiple administrations. Was the right choice made? the facts say no. Were the intentions noble? Yes, but the means chosen did not achieve the established goal“.
The Municipality then rejects the accusations about the role it should have had in saving the company Why “it had and has also had in the last period a minimal percentage of control, without the possibility of having a significant impact. To complete the news, the correct one of course, it should be remembered that in 2023 in the Shareholders’ Meeting the Municipality of Alessandria, in order to try to reverse the trend, placed its trust in the bloc of Alessandria operators and members and supported them in everything. It didn’t go well but everything can be said, if one is in good faith, except that the Municipality of Alessandria did not have attention and trust for the territory. Once again we are here to ask Alexandrian politicians for intellectual honesty and clarity in evaluations. The Municipality of Alessandria remains fully available as a point of reference for any interested investors to recover the value, the abilities of the employees, the knowledge, the history and the plants of the Centrale del Latte”.
