Regarding MSC’s expansion project, Bolloré says that it “has granted exclusivity to the MSC Group until March 31, 2022, so the group can deliver a purchase proposal once the necessary audit and contractual negotiations are done” also clarifying that Bolloré “will make public the results of these exclusive negotiations in due time”.
