Taghleef Industries (Ti) has announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Spanish film supplier Derprosa Film from 3i Group, Baring and other minority shareholders. The transaction, which has been approved by the Board of Directors of Taghleef Industries and Derprosa Film, is subject to customary completion conditions and is expected to close by the end of April, 2014.
