A&O Shearman advised the Jacky Perrenot Group in relation to its entry into exclusive negotiations to acquire Vos Logistics, while Loyens & Loeff advised Vos Logistics. The proposed transaction sees Jacky Perrenot, a leading French road transport and logistics group, enter exclusive talks to acquire the Dutch Vos Logistics group.
