  Sara Lee Corp. (NYSE: SLE) announced it has completed the sale of its 51 percent stake in its Godrej Sara Lee joint venture to Godrej Consumer Products Ltd. for a total consideration of EUR185 million ($230 million). Godrej Sara Lee is the market leader in the Indian household insecticides category and has a strong presence in the air care, shoe care and male hair care markets.

The company continues to anticipate closing the sale of its global body care and European detergents businesses to Unilever by the end of the calendar year 2010, and closing the sale of its air care business to The Procter & Gamble Company shortly after the end of the fiscal year in July. Both transactions are subject to customary closing conditions.
