The company has no right to go bankrupt and will not go bankrupt. It is too important, the legal conditions do not allow for such a situation to occur. Quite the opposite, the company is on the right track\u201d, Klimczak said.<\/p>\n<p>The minister also stated that the company is on the right track. It has started a restructuring procedure to alleviate the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.railfreight.com\/railfreight\/2024\/05\/22\/our-situation-is-worse-than-i-thought-says-pkp-cargo-president\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">financial crisis<\/a> it finds itself in. Much like the new supervisory board of the company, the minister seems to blame bad management for the company\u2019s dire situation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish PKP Cargo to be in the same financial condition as PKP Intercity. This company simply needs to be managed very well\u201d, Klimczak said. PKP Intercity provides long-distance passenger transportation, and is financially performing better than PKP Cargo.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"readmore\">\n<div class=\"readmore-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.railfreight.com\/business\/2024\/07\/02\/pkp-cargo-to-commence-remedial-proceedings\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.railfreight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/PKP-Cargo-wagons-in-Katowice-128x128.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"readmore-thumbnail\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"readmore-info\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.railfreight.com\/business\/2024\/07\/02\/pkp-cargo-to-commence-remedial-proceedings\/\" class=\"readmore-title\">PKP Cargo to commence remedial proceedings<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<h2>PKP Cargo has been spending irresponsibly<\/h2>\n<p>According to the minister, PKP Cargo has been spending too much money. For example, it had contracts with 64 law firms, but that number has now been reduced. It also \u201chas its own property where it can have its headquarters, but it rents a modern, elegant building nearby, for a quarter of a million zlotys\u201d, the minister said. \u201cThere are really many such examples.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The minister says that he is already seeing improvement at the company, which is a turnaround from before. \u201cUntil recently, the sales department has not been working, all important tenders were lost. The competition read PKP Cargo like an open book, the company was very predictable\u201d, the minister says.<\/p>\n<h2>First successes<\/h2>\n<p>However, \u201ca week ago, as the authorities of PKP Cargo announced, a very important tender for the supply of coal from the mine in Bogdanka was won &#8211; 9 million tons, the value of the order is 138 million Polish zloty. I am convinced that if the company&#8217;s authorities approach subsequent tenders with such diligence, subsequent orders will prove that this company really has a very good future ahead of it. I only think about such a future and the representatives of PKP, who have 33 per cent of shares in PKP Cargo, are trying to ensure that PKP Cargo follows only this direction\u201d, the minister concludes.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"readmore\">\n<div class=\"readmore-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.railfreight.com\/railfreight\/2024\/07\/16\/pkp-cargo-transfers-250-employees-to-pkp-plk\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.railfreight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/PKP-Cargo-PKP-PLK-transfer-128x128.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"readmore-thumbnail\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"readmore-info\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.railfreight.com\/railfreight\/2024\/07\/16\/pkp-cargo-transfers-250-employees-to-pkp-plk\/\" class=\"readmore-title\">PKP Cargo transfers 250 employees to PKP PLK<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Polish infrastructure minister, Dariusz Klimczak, maintained that PKP Cargo will not go bankrupt.
