Casino has been wrestling with debt reduction efforts for some time, aiming to maintain its operations amidst financial difficulties. As of the end of June, the company’s net debt was noted at €6.1 billion, a slight decrease from €6.4 billion at the end of the previous year.

These agreements underscore Casino’s continued efforts to negotiate with creditors and manage its debt effectively.
