pre-pack

Goods sold together

Pre-pack refers to goods packaged before sale rather than at the point of purchase—a pre-pack of sliced cheese, pre-pack salads.

In British business and legal contexts, a pre-pack (or pre-packaged administration) is an arrangement where a company's assets are sold immediately upon entering insolvency, with the deal negotiated beforehand: The retailer went through a pre-pack and emerged under new ownership.
