Martinelli advises Frísia on soybean facility acquisition

Martinelli Advogados advised Frísia Cooperativa Agroindustrial on the strategic acquisition of a soybean crushing facility in Ponta Grossa, State of Paraná, from Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC).

The transaction is currently under review by the Brazilian Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE). The asset comprises an integrated industrial platform with daily crushing capacity of approximately 3,400 tonnes, encompassing grain reception, processing and storage infrastructure, oil and meal extraction operations, lecithin processing and refining facilities — positioning the transaction as a relevant vertical expansion within Brazil’s agribusiness value chain.

Martinelli Advogados relied on partners Cintia Meyer (pictured left), Luiz Guilherme Gama de Oliveira (pictured right) and lawyer Aleff Davantel Ribeiro da Silva.
