Main Industries
In France, the food industry is a key sector. Our lawyers have developed a special expertise encompassing the entire food spectrum (distribution of seeds and phytosanitary products; producers of fruit juices, meat, milk, cereals, vegetables and derivatives; distribution of raw and processed food products; fast food restaurants).
FLV advises national and international producers in connection with the creation and structuring of their businesses: creation and structuring of cooperatives, central purchasing units, acquisitions or mergers and all related issues (including concentration issues), but also the implementation and contractual structuring of distribution networks and all transactions related to the marketing of products, from their conception to the follow-up of issues related to their commercialization to end consumers.
Our lawyers also advise and assist companies dedicated to the production and marketing of wines and spirits (acquisition and operation of vineyards, distribution networks, operation of wineries and estates); they have a real know-how concerning all the legal issues associated with this very specific business sector (PDO/AOC; advertising, branding…).
