even & i Holdings and Alimentation Couche-Tard have begun identifying thousands of locations they could divest if they end up merging, according to announcements this week.
Seven & i said that a divestiture package would likely have to include more than 2,000 overlapping locations in order to avoid antitrust pitfalls if the companies agreed to a deal. Seven & i said on Monday that the companies have also begun identifying potential buyers for these locations.
This comes less than a week after Seven & i revealed several major changes across its organization, including a new CEO and a future initial public offering for 7-Eleven in North America. Some experts see these shifts as preparation for a deal with Couche-Tard.
