Divjak, Topic & Bihtijarevic has reported that the 2015 acquisition by Heineken Croatia of Lasko Grupa (a Croatian entity previously owned by Pivovarna Lasko, Slovenia) has closed, and that Lasko Grupa has now completely merged into Heineken Croatia. DTB advised Heineken Croatia, with Wolf Theiss advising Lasko.
The Croatian reorganization process followed Heineken's 2015 acquisition of Lasko in Slovenia (reported on by CEE Legal Matters on April 17, 2015).
According to DTB, “after the completed acquisition and merger process, Heineken Croatia has assumed and continued operations of Lasko Grupa with the aim of strengthening Heineken’s business operations in Croatia.”
The DTB team consisted of Senior Partner Sasa Divjak, and Senior Associate Vladimir Ante Batarelo.
The Wolf Theiss team consisted of Counsel Klara Miletic and Associate Neja Nastran from the firm’s Slovenian office.
