Arzinger's team has successfully closed a significant transaction on the acquisition of West Gate Logistics for our client Aurora Multimarket. The seller was a company from the Dragon Capital group.
The complex is located near Kyiv and comprises two warehouses. At the same time, only the smaller one is currently operating, as the second one was destroyed due to the hostilities in the Kyiv region. Aurora plans to fully rebuild the larger warehouse by 2026.
«This project is quite unique, especially in times of war, as such real estate transactions are the exception rather than the rule,» comments Timur Bondaryev, founding partner and project leader.
Arzinger's team advised on the transaction at all stages, including drafting the transaction design, negotiating all transaction documents, obtaining merger clearance from the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine, and closing the deal.
We are very happy for our client and grateful for their trust! This transaction is a landmark one, as it will allow our client's business to meet its need for rapid development and create new jobs.
