Jazan Energy and Development Company (JAZADCO) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Tabuk Fisheries Co. (TFC), Tharawat Seas, and Aquaculture Sharq Farms Company to conduct a feasibility study of the 3 companies’ merger with JAZADCO’s aquaculture sector.

 

The 6-month MoU states that the potential merger entails establishing a new limited liability company (LLC) headquartered in Riyadh with a capital of SAR 500,000, JAZADCO said in a statement to Tadawul on Wednesday.

 

JAZADCO stake stands at 45%, while the share of the 3 other companies will be defined in due course based on the tangible assets they will provide, according to the statement.
