Businessman Drago\u0219 Anastasiu, owner of the Eurolines group, who sold his travel agency network last year to the German group Dertour, is preparing to invest in a chain of tourist locations\u2014resorts, smaller hotels, and guesthouses in “unique areas” of the country\u2014operating under an umbrella called ROBELO (Romanian Best Locations).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anastasiu intends to focus on the hospitality sector, specifically on small units across the country, such as those with 80-100 beds. He aims to create a network, similar to what he did with the travel agencies\u2014a chain of accommodation and dining facilities under the ROBELO (Romanian Best Locations) umbrella, which he will support with management and where he will not necessarily be the majority shareholder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I am interested in any location situated in a unique area that has an open-minded entrepreneur whom we can assist financially and with management, while they remain on-site to optimize the business. I have a fairly large budget, plus a bank alongside me, to establish a network of 25 locations over the next 3 years,” stated Drago\u0219 Anastasiu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In parallel, alongside the owner of City Grill, Drago\u0219 Petrescu, he plans to launch a similar project in the restaurant sector, aiming for a chain of 25-30 establishments. Thus, he is prepared to acquire such units in the coming period or enter as a minority shareholder to finance their development.<\/p>\n\n\n
