MÁV takes full control of Dunakeszi rail vehicle plant
MÁV has taken full ownership of two Dunakeszi entities that sit behind the rail vehicle plant north of Budapest, bringing both the site’s activities and its asset base under group control.
The deal covers a maintenance/manufacturing company operating at the site and a separate asset-management/property company that holds the plant and real estate.
Ownership shift covers assets and site governance
The two-company structure matters because it ties the facility’s physical assets and the governance of on-site work back into the railway group, rather than leaving one part outside the operating company.
The plant is a key location in Hungary’s rolling stock maintenance ecosystem, and has also been used for wider rail vehicle work depending on customer contracts.
MÁV has not set out what (if anything) will change in production or maintenance activity at the plant as a result of the ownership shift.
What to watch: whether MÁV publishes a near-term plan for investment and workload at the site once both the operating entity and the asset-holder sit fully inside the group.
