Mayer Brown has advised the Turkish airport service provider Celebi Havacilik Holding on its acquisition of the German air cargo handling and warehousing business from Aviapartner.
With this purchase Celebi takes over Aviapartner´s freight handling business at Frankfurt's Rhein-Main and Frankfurt-Hahn airports, which involved approximately 125,000 tons of cargo and approximately EUR 12.6 million turnover in 2013.
The acquisition is part of Celebi´s international expansion, as in 2011 Mayer Brown advised on the company's acquisition of Celebi Ground Services Austria (formerly Fraport Ground Services Austria), and on other Celebi activities in the German airport services market.
The Mayer Brown team was led by Partner Guido Zeppenfeld, and included Counsel Bjorn Vollmuth and Associates Jan Streer, Vanessa Klesy, and Elmar Gunther.
