The law firm JLSW Janaszczyk Lis i Wspólnicy had the pleasure of providing comprehensive legal services to the selling-side, as part of the Hartenberg Capital Fund's acquisition of a majority stake in 4kraft sp. z o.o., owner of the Kinderkraft brand - a global leader in the market for children products such as strollers and car seats.

In the process, our team, consisting of: Marcin Lis, Tomasz Janaszczyk and Joanna Żemojtel, provided legal support to the sellers at every stage of the transaction. This included preparing the company for the transaction, due diligence, drafting and negotiating transaction documentation with collaterals, and arranging the signing.

The transaction is subject to regulatory approval - the fulfillment of certain conditions, including the approval of the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection for the concentration.

The takeover of 4kraft Group's controlling stake by Hartenberg investment fund is a new and important step in the development of 4Kraft, bringing the company closer to becoming a global leader in the parenting industry. For our law firm, this was also a significant event in the framework of our long-standing cooperation with 4Kraft.
