Two other similar bids for tourist facilities will take place this month, when state-owned Mamaia SA and Litoral SA will sell some of their assets. The deadline for submitting offers for the two compounds is November 16. Mamaia SA will sell Vila Turistica Mamaia, on some 2,145 sqm and Complex Hotelier Mamaia, on 2,329 sqm. The bids are part of a privatization process the Tourism Ministry has started, targeting the tourism facilities across the country which are still state-owned and most of which require extensive renovation.
