We advised the Brummer Family on its divestiture
of the Brummer Logistik Group, a leading provider
of food logistics services in Central Europe, to
DACHSER SE.
DACHSER intends to fully integrate the Brummer
companies into its European Food Network, which
spans 33 countries throughout Europe.
Lawyers in our Frankfurt office led the transaction,
with support from our Düsseldorf and Hamburg
offices and our antitrust, employment, infrastructure
and projects, private equity, and tax practices.
We advised the board of directors of Eagle Bulk
Shipping Inc., an owner-operator within the midsize
dry bulk vessel segment, on its combination with Star
Bulk Carriers Corp., a global shipping company
focusing on the transportation of dry bulk cargoes.
The merger creates the largest U.S.-listed dry bulk
shipping company with 163 owned vessels and an
aggregate capacity of 15.6 million deadweight tonnage.
Lawyers in our Washington, D.C. office led the
transaction, with support from our Los Angeles and
New York offices and our capital markets, litigation,
and tax practices.
