Dec 5 (Reuters) - Spanish retailer DIA DIDA.MC has agreed to sell its perfume store chain Clarel to Colombian investment company Grupo Trinity, it said on Tuesday, having abandoned a sale of the business last August.
The sale of Clarel, which comprises about 1,000 stores in Spain and three distribution centres, will bring in 11.5 million euros ($12.42 million) to DIA in 2024 and a further 15 million euros in 2029, the company said.
However, the sale will have a 9.4 million euro negative impact on its accounts in DIA's next reporting period, it said.
DIA had announced the planned sale of Clarel to investment fund C2 Private Capital in December 2022, but the deal was abandoned last August.
