SAO PAULO, Nov 24 (Reuters) - Brazil steelmaker CSN said on Wednesday it has agreed to acquire metal-can maker Metalgráfica in a move it said would allow it to expand the production capacity of its packaging division.

CSN said the transaction, which requires shareholder approval, will make Metalgráfica a fully owned subsidiary.

Metalgráfica shareholders will receive CSN shares. (Reporting by Stephen Eisenhammer Editing by Chris Reese)
