Primo Water Corporation (NASDAQ: PRMW) is a leading provider of sustainable drinking water solutions in North America and Europe.

This transaction, expected to close by the end of 2023, will allow Primo Water to focus on its core North American business, enhance profitability, and return capital to shareholders.
