KUALA LUMPUR (March 1): Inix Technologies Holdings Bhd said today that it has ceased its intention to acquire a factory in Sendayan, Negeri Sembilan under a joint venture, as part of a plan to set up a rubber gloves factory on-site.
The cessation follows the lapsing of a letter of intent signed between Inix and its joint venture partner Lyglan Properties Sdn Bhd for the venture, with an estimated cost of RM35 million.
Inix had intended to invest RM22.75 million or 65% of the company’s equity, paired with RM12.25 million from Lyglan for the remaining 35%.
The cessation comes weeks after Inix announced that it is buying 51% stake in operating glove-making outfit L&S Gloves Sdn Bhd, which is capable of producing 92.88 million pieces of gloves per annum, for RM6.5 million.
