After the sale, the company will retain Sterno’s home fragrance segment, which will continue operating as Rimports, a Provo, Utah-based manufacturer and distributor of branded and private-label home fragrance products. The transaction is subject to customary conditions and regulatory approvals and is expected to close in May 2026.
