Many of Romania’s old factories are deteriorating year after year, and those who should be taking care of them, whether in the state or the private sector, seem to be leaving them increasingly in disrepair. At the beginning of 2023, eccentric designer Onur Osman acquired 40% of the shares of an old textile factory near Brașov.
Sources close to the designer told us that negotiations with Onur Osman’s staff began in November last year, with the details of the acquisition and transfer to be finalized in the coming days.
In addition to multi-million euro businesses in the luxury industries, Onur Osman now owns a significant part of another old Romanian factory, which was recently integrated into the group of companies owned by the Romanian businessman.
Upon taking over the share package, Onur Osman stated that he respects the Romanian business environment and regrets that many old Romanian factories have deteriorated in recent years, being happy to be able to contribute to the rehabilitation of some of them. Having been told that he is loved by employees in all the companies he owns, the textile factory employees hope that they will also have better management and a secure future.
Upon signing the contract, the employees of the factory near Brașov applauded the arrival of the new boss, asking Onur Osman to take care of them and lead the old factory to a new financial level. The businessman has already offered a salary increase from the first month of taking over the share package in order to motivate his employees and build a relationship of trust with them, as a source close to the designer told us.
