(Sharecast News) - Tempur Sealy International said on Tuesday that it has agreed to buy Mattress Firm in a cash and stock deal valued at around $4bn.
Mattress Firm is the largest mattress specialty retailer in the US, operating more than 2,300 brick-and-mortar retail locations and a growing e-commerce platform.
