From that moment on, the response followed the group's usual growth pattern.<\/p>\n<p>Q: And what is that answer?<br \/>\nAC: Control of the companies in the \"Metalusa Group\" is held by the parent company, Metalusa Industrial, SA. The subsidiaries we set up in foreign markets have their own legal personality and autonomous assets in relation to the parent company, as is now the case in C\u00f4te d'Ivoire. In this case, unlike all the other subsidiaries, we have established a company with a local partner.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Is there a particular reason for this?<br \/>\nAC: Our local partner is well-established in the market and operates in sectors that are economically interlinked with what we do. There was an opportunity and a desire to grow together, we carried out a market study and, as the conditions were right to go ahead with the investment, we did so.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Will Metalusa C\u00f4te D'Ivoire compete in the Ivorian market in the same way as in other markets? Is this because you have a local partner?<br \/>\nAC: \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A matriz competitiva da Metalusa mant\u00eam-se.
