BORDERS TO SELL PAPERCHASE
US BOOK retailer Borders yesterday agreed a deal to sell UK-based stationery group Paperchase to private equity group Primary Capital for $31m (£20m). Borders plans to use the proceeds from the sale to reduce debt levels. Borders acquired a majority interest in Paperchase in 2004. It said the deal to sell the business should be completed within a week.
