An international company decided to sell five branches in the Netherlands. One branch was removed from the company and transferred to a subsidiary within the same group. The remaining branches were sold in sets of two to different Dutch buyers. In one case, it was not possible to transfer the lease agreement. It was then decided to change the structure of the deal to a share transaction so that the lease would automatically be transferred.
“Thanks to Bert’s help, we were able to complete the transactions within the set deadline. Thanks to his emails in German, Dutch, and English, we no longer needed Deepl; we could simply communicate directly with Bert, and he with the other parties. Bert was a tremendous support to us during this sales process.”
