Seven & i Holdings, the Japanese convenience store leader behind 7-Eleven, has chosen Bain Capital as the preferred bidder for a stake in its secondary assets. This decision follows a competitive bidding process that began late last year, which also included KKR and Japan Industrial Partners.
The stake in question pertains to York Holdings, a subsidiary that Seven & i plans to spin off, consolidating its non-core businesses. Bain Capital's bid reportedly values York Holdings at over 700 billion yen, equivalent to approximately $4.7 billion. This information was disclosed by Japanese media outlets, including Nikkei and Jiji, citing unnamed sources familiar with the situation.
As of now, Seven & i, Bain Capital, and the competing firms have not publicly commented on these developments. Once spun off, York Holdings will encompass various subsidiaries, including supermarket operations, the baby-products retailer Akachan Honpo, and the Denny's restaurant chain in Japan.
