The National Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA) has put up for sale a total of 1,574 kilograms of methanol in 12 metal barrels of 200 liters each.

As ARMA reported in the Prozorro.Sale system, the methanol was detained by Odesa Customs and handed over to the agency by the Shevchenkivskyi Court of Kyiv in 2024.

This is Russian-made methanol produced by OJSC Shchekinoazot (Russian Federation, Tula region, Shchekinsky district, Pervomaisky working settlement), TOMET LLC (Russian Federation, Samara) and Togliattiazot LLC (Russian Federation, Samara region, Togliatti).

The future winner of the auction will have to pay customs duties in the amount of UAH 44 million 886.9 thousand to the ARMA account, while the starting price of the lot is UAH 56 million 925.1 thousand.

The day before, the National Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA) put up for sale 68 cardboard boxes of TORAY desalination equipment. The equipment is for the organization and operation of a water desalination plant with a capacity of 11,300 cubic meters per day based on reverse osmosis, which was purchased from Marubeni Corporation (Japan).

Earlier, the National Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA) held an auction to select a manager for the seized asset, the Zhovten sanatorium, which was won by MN Group, a limited liability company owned by Odesa resident Oleg Pochkin.

The Kyiv District Court of Odesa also transferred real estate, which is part of the logistics infrastructure of the region's port complex, to the management of the National Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA).

In addition, the National Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA) announced a call for proposals for the management of three hotel complexes in the historic center and resort area of Odesa.

The agency also announced a tender for the selection of legal entities to take measures to organize the sale of the seized USKO MFU, which was transferred to the management of ARMA by the decision of the Dniprovsky District Court of Kyiv.
