Mexico & the Netherlands: Femsa completes block trade to exit Heineken Holding

Mexico’s Femsa has completed a €359 million block trade to exit its stake in Heineken Holding, GlobalCapital reported on May 20.

This concludes a process where Femsa gradually divested its holdings in both Heineken NV and Heineken Holding, with major sales occurring in September 2017, February 2023, and May 2023.

In May 2023, Heineken N.V. purchased the remaining shares from FEMSA, effectively ending FEMSA's ownership in both companies.
