On October 25, 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into a binding commitment to sell its Le Parfait brand and business to a subsidiary of Berlin Packaging L.L.C., a global packaging supplier. Le Parfait is a French jar brand sold in more than 20 countries.  The proposed sale is expected to generate gross proceeds of approximately €72 million, which will be redeployed to help fund expansion initiatives, such as the Company’s MAGMA innovation. O-I expects to close around year end 2021, subject to the works council consultation and other customary closing conditions. The proposed transaction between O-I and Berlin Packaging L.L.C. also includes a long-term supply arrangement to manufacture Le Parfait jars from O-I plants in France and Spain.
