Bird & Bird advised Nutricia Polska sp. z o.o., a member of French food sector group Danone, in connection with the acquisition of shares in Promedica sp. z o.o., one of the largest companies on the Polish market specialising in home enteral nutrition.

The legal support we provided included the completion of a due diligence review, the drafting and negotiating of transaction documents, including the agreement on the purchase of the shares of Promedica sp. z o.o., as well overseeing the closing of the transaction.

• The project team providing the legal services was led by Rafał Dziedzic (Partner, Corporate & M&A) and comprised the following Associates: Artur Stosio (Counsel Corporate & M&A), Mariya Borsuk (Associate, Corporate & M&A), Karolina Stawicka (Partner, Employment), Katarzyna Bieliszczuk (Senior Associate, IP), and Marcin Alberski (Senior Associate, Competition).

– “We are pleased to have been able to advise Danone Group once again. The transaction was very important for the French food sector group and, at the same time, a unique one, since the company acquired renders medical services, which are a regulated business. Consequently, our work focused on numerous regulatory issues as well as on the possibility of transferring the rights of Promedica sp. z o.o. to Nutricia Polska sp. z o.o. and identifying potential risks associated with the transfer”, said Rafał Dziedzic.

- “By adding Promedica to the Nutricia group, we will be able to reach a larger group of patients with even better care and higher quality services. The transaction enhances Nutricia’s market position in the specialty nutrition segment in Poland. We are grateful to Bird & Bird for efficiently navigating us through every stage of the transaction. This was yet a further transaction conducted in cooperation with the firm. We are pleased to have entrusted counselling on such an important investment to a reliable business partner”, commented Artur Ludwiczak, the Managing Director of NUTRICIA Polska Sp. z o.o.
