Greek Giant Metlen Energy & Metals Eyes London Stock Listing

The Athens-listed company, valued at £4 billion, has submitted its initial filings to the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), marking the first step in a regulatory process aimed at completing the listing by 2025.

Metlen Energy & Metals, one of Greece’s largest industrial conglomerates, has announced plans to pursue a primary listing on the London Stock Exchange in a significant move for the international Greek business community and the City of London.

The Athens-listed company, valued at £4 billion, has submitted its initial filings to the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), marking the first step in a regulatory process aimed at completing the listing by 2025.

This strategic decision follows Metlen’s earlier announcement that it was exploring international exchanges, including London, as part of its long-term growth strategy. The company intends to maintain a secondary listing in Athens, reflecting its roots in Greece while underscoring its expanding global footprint.

Metlen, formerly known as Mytilineos, operates across more than 30 countries and employs over 5,000 people. Its diverse portfolio spans energy production and aluminium mining in Greece, with a growing presence in international markets. In the UK, Metlen is a key player in a joint venture developing the Eastern Green Link subsea cable project off the east coast.

The company stated that the move to London aligns with its “increasingly diversified geographical presence” and signals its ambitions to strengthen ties with international investors while showcasing Greece’s industrial capabilities on a global stage.
