Officials handling the long-running bankruptcy protection proceedings for Piaggio Aerospace are making another attempt to find a buyer for the Italian aircraft manufacturer. On Wednesday, the “extraordinary receivership governing body” will publish details of the latest bidding process in selected Italian and international newspapers, as well as on its own website.

Prospective bidders for Piaggio’s assets will have until June 12 to submit the required documentation. Once this deadline passes, eligible applicants, which could include approved foreign interests, will be given 30 days to conduct due diligence on the company data before having to make binding offers.
