HistoryThe Sherwin-Williams Company (SHW), the largest U.S. paint retailer, agreed in November 2012 to acquire closely held Consorcio Comex SA de CV for about $2.34 billion including debt to gain Mexico’s largest paint maker.[2] The deal was rejected by Mexico's Comisión Federal de Competencia in November 2013 for anti-trust purposes,[3] and a result of such, PPG Industries has agreed to buy Comex for $2.3 billion [4] Sherwin-Williams was still able to purchase Comex' operations in the USA and Canada for $165 million.[5] After the failed bid in Mexico, and before the take-over by PPG, Comex sued Sherwin-Williams for not trying hard enough to seal the deal.[6]In July 2015, after the photo of president Enrique Pena Nieto showing his height difference next to Felipe VI of Spain made the international headlines, Comex released on its Twitter account a photoshopped photo of the Mexican president standing on one of its paint pots with the text une pintura de altura (a paint of stature). After the post got widely retweeted, the company deleted it and made an official apology, arguing that the photo had not been approved before it went live.[7][8] ActivityComex sells paint and coatings. As of 2013, the company distributed its products through 234 Comex stores in the USA, 80 Comex stores and 1500 external retailers in Canada. It also operates 5 manufacturing sites in the USA and 3 in Canada.[3] In January 2016, Comex opened its 4,000th store in Mexico.[9] References1. ^http://www.hoovers.com/company/The_Comex_Group/rfhttci-1.html 2. ^{{cite web | url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-11-12/sherwin-williams-to-buy-paint-maker-comex-for-2-34-billion-1-.html | title=Sherwin-Williams to Buy Paint Maker Comex for $2.34 Billion | publisher=Bloomberg | date=Nov 12, 2012 | accessdate=2013-06-04 |author1=Kaskey, Jack |author2=Case, Brendan}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/113395/sherwinwilliams-falls-as-comex-acquisition-appeal-denied|title=Sherwin-Williams Falls as Comex Acquisition Appeal Denied|website=Zacks.com|date=4 November 2013|access-date=2016-08-18}} 4. ^{{cite web | url=https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2014/06/30/ppg-industries-to-buy-mexican-paint-company-consorcio-comex-for-2-3-billion/?_php=true&_type=blogs&_r=0 | title=PPG to Buy Mexican Paint Maker Consorcio Comex for $2.3 Billion | publisher=TheNewYorkTimes | date=Jun 30, 2014 | accessdate= Jul 4, 2014 | author=Alden, William}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2014-04-04/sherwin-williams-cancels-bid-for-comex-mexico-unit|title=Sherwin-Williams Cancels Bid for Comex Mexico Unit|website=Bloomberg.com|date=4 April 2014|author=Jack Kaskey|access-date=2016-08-18}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/mexico-comex-idUSL1N0O01Q220140514|title=Mexico's Comex sues Sherwin-Williams over failed takeover|website=Reuters.com|date=14 May 2014|author1=Dave Graham|author2=Tomas Sarmiento|access-date=2016-08-18}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.businessinsider.com/r-mexican-firm-sorry-for-royally-selling-president-short-2015-7|title=Mexican firm sorry for royally selling president short|website=Businessinsider.com|date=2 July 2015|author=Max de Haldevang|access-date=2016-08-18}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://fusion.net/story/161627/why-is-a-mexican-paint-company-trolling-the-president-about-his-height/|title=Why is a Mexican paint company trolling the president about his height?|website=Fusion.net|date=6 July 2015|author=Rafa Fernandez De Castro|access-date=2016-08-18}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20160112006386/en/PPG-Comex-Opens-4000th-Paint-Coatings-Retail|title=PPG Comex Opens 4,000th Paint and Coatings Retail Location in Mexico|website=Businesswire.com|date=12 January 2016|access-date=2016-08-18}} External links{{Commons category|Comex Group}}
