Schoenherr advised Grupa Żywiec (the Polish subsidiary of the Heineken Group), a prominent brewing company in Poland known for its rich tradition and innovative approach to alcoholic beverage production, on signing a conditional agreement for the sale of the brewery in Leżajsk to Mycofeast. The agreement is a significant milestone for both parties and signals a new chapter for the brewery. Grupa Żywiec recently announced changes to its production strategy in Poland, focusing on consolidating operations in four key breweries. The finalisation of the transaction is subject to approval by the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKIK).
"We are proud to have advised Grupa Żywiec on this important step toward achieving their strategic objectives," said Schoenherr partner Marcin Czaprowski, who led the Schoenherr team.
Schoenherr provided comprehensive legal support to Grupa Żywiec throughout the entire process. The advisory team consisted of Marcin Czaprowski (partner), Maciej Korzon (associate) and Kamil Jurzak (associate).
