Shareholders and industry watchers have been keenly following developments ever since.
Tongaat Hulett’s ongoing struggles have created a cloud of uncertainty over the company’s future. Shareholders have been eagerly awaiting a resolution that would clarify the way forward. However, with the publication of the amended business rescue plans pushed further into the future, the uncertainty lingers.
