Titan Group announces the signing of a definitive agreement with the Privatization Agency of Kosovo for the purchase, through its affiliate “Sharr Beteiligungs GmbH” , of the Sharr cement plant.

Based in Greece, the Group owns 13 cement plants in 8 countries and is organized in four geographic regions: Greece & Western Europe, USA, Southeastern Europe and Eastern Mediterranean.
