Whirlpool to withdraw offer for Britain's AGA Rangemaster

(Reuters) - Whirlpool Corp said it was withdrawing its proposal to buy Britain's AGA Rangemaster Group Plc, whose shareholders approved a $201 million takeover offer by U.S. cooking equipment maker Middleby Corp on Tuesday.

Whirlpool approached AGA Rangemaster, the maker of cast-iron range cookers popular in the UK, last week regarding a possible deal.
