From taxation laws to franchising and smaller players entering the FMCG industry in numbers, the need for strong legal support has never been so evident.
Our market knowledge has enabled us to be the legal partners of choice for clients from the early stages of structuring, registration and set up to the operational stages of their businesses.

Among others, we offer support with tax issues, joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions, IP issues, labour issues, and finance.

Some of our most successful results have come in this sector. Our anti-counterfeiting and litigation teams have achieved favourable results for the world’s biggest players in the food & beverage and tobacco industries in terms of intellectual property litigation. We have conducted numerous raids for said companies and assist from the initial stages of investigation up till the raid and seizure of the counterfeit and infringed products. We helped one of the largest tobacco producers worldwide, by using the provisional borders measures on goods in transit, obtaining final judgement, ordering the destruction of the seized goods, and finally obtaining compensation for our client.
