Private equity firm BC Partners said on Wednesday it will sell a 40.25 percent stake in its supermarket chain Migros to Turkish conglomerate Anadolu Endustri Holding AS.
Anadolu will pay 6.4 billion lira ($2.74 billion) or 26 lira ($11) per share, a premium of 14 percent to Migros' close on Wednesday.
Anadolu offered to buy a stake in Migros from BC Partners in October for 26 lira per share, representing a premium of 36 percent to Migros' closing on Oct. 2.
Migros was acquired in BC Partners in 2008 for $3.25 billion with the help of Turkey's Turkven and Italy's DeA Capital, beating a bid by larger rival Blackstone Group and Croatian food group Agrokor.
Bank of America Merrill Lynch and JPMorgan Chase & Co advised BC Partners on this transaction.
Shares of Migros closed at 22.75 lira on Wednesday on the Istanbul Stock Exchange.
Anadolu could not be reached immediately outside regular business hours.
