Suzano S.A. (SUZ - Free Report) announced that it closed the acquisition of two industrial assets from Pactiv Evergreen (PTVE - Free Report) in Arkansas and North Carolina. This move will boost the company's operations across North America, entering consumer and food service packaging segments in the region.
Details on SUZ’s Pactiv Evergreen Assets’ Buyout Deal

Suzano's Share Price Lags Industry
