This approval follows previous regulatory approvals from the Serbian Commission for the Protection of Competition and the Anti-Monopoly Committee of Ukraine.
Peter Swinburn, president and CEO of Molson Coors, said: “We are pleased to have received the EU regulatory approval and look forward to closing before the end of the month, as previously indicated.
“We continue to be impressed with the StarBev team and operations, and expect to hit the ground running upon closing this highly compelling transaction.”
In May, the company successfully completed an offering of $1.9bn in debt securities, the proceeds of which will be used to finance the acquisition.
