Air Zimbabwe, which owes foreign and domestic creditors more than $300 million, was in October placed into administration to try and revive its fortunes.
The troubled airline is among dozens of state-owned firms, known locally as parastatals, that are set to be partially or fully privatised in the next nine months as the government seeks to cut its fiscal deficit seen at 11 percent of GDP this year.
Air Zimbabwe administrator Reggie Saruchera said in a notice published in media on Monday that potential investors should make their bids before Nov. 23 after paying a non-refundable deposit of 20,000 dollars .
Saruchera did not indicate whether investors would be allowed to tender for partial or total shareholding in Air Zimbabwe. He was not immediately reachable for comment.
Only three of Air Zimbabwe’s planes are operational, with another three grounded, which has forced it to abandon international routes.
