Casino, Guichard-Perrachon S.A.'s Chapter 15 case is closed, having served its narrow purpose as an ancillary recognition proceeding tied to a court-supervised financial restructuring conducted in France. The French food-and-general-merchandise retailer and several affiliated debtors — including Casino Finance S.A., Monoprix S.A.S., Distribution Casino France S.A.S., Quatrim S.A.S., Segisor S.A.S., and Casino Participations France S.A.S. — filed parallel Chapter 15 petitions in the Southern District of New York on February 15, 2024, seeking recognition of French conciliation and safeguard proceedings as foreign main proceedings (Chapter 15 PetitionDkt. 1). The filings followed an adverse economic environment since 2022, weak operating performance, and mounting indebtedness that pushed the group into a court-supervised restructuring in its home jurisdiction, supported by pre-filing deleveraging moves including the sale of equity interests in Exito and Sendas Distribuidora.
