At the event organised on Thursday evening at the Targu Mures National Theatre in celebration of the 60th anniversary of the start of the construction of the Azomures Chemical Fertilizer Plant, former company CEO Harri Kiiski said that it is "ironic" that 60 years on, Europe should think about de-industrialization because of the energy crisis.
He also mentioned that the 'Liviu Rebreanu' Company of the National Theater in Targu Mures was founded in 1962, and that it has grown together with the Azomures plant.
William Dujardin, CEO of Azomures owner Ameropa, stated that Romania is today a global agribusiness leader also due to Azomures, and Ameropa is the agribusiness leader in Romania. Dujardin emphasized that Romania is very important for Ameropa, since this is where the group has the most assets and the most employees.
As both Azomures and the 'Liviu Rebreanu' Company of the National Theater in Targu Mures mark this year six decades of existence, the anniversary event highlighted the symbiosis between the industrial platform and the community through a unique theater performance consisting of fragments from the shows staged immediately after the company's foundation, such as Mihail Sebastian's "Jocul de a vacanta/The Holiday Game" directed by Nicolae Cristache, "Take, Ianke si Cadar/Take, Ianke and Cadar" by Victor Ioan Popa, directed by Nicu Mihoc, and Moličre's "School for Wives".
